Merckel's Double Whammy

category international | summit mobilisations | other press author Tuesday January 02, 2007 21:34author by tra-la Report this post to the editors

Pretty photos of daddy bush too....



Angela Merckel assumed yesterday the presidency of the EU and will host the G8 in 2007.
She is from the Christian right in Germany and notably stopped funding to stem cell research
programmes 24 hours after president Bush made use of his presidential veto in the US
to achieve the same thing.
Memories...
Memories...



Angela Merckel enjoys a close relationship with Pope Benedict the XVI, (indeed with the
exception of the schismatic Pope Benedict the XIII- {Peter De Luna from Aragon}- he would
be Pope Benedict the XVII).

The sites on the G8 and the Germany Presidency's aims and means are here:

(the media accreditation is a bit of a joke- but you2 can get regular updates on all the 'doings'in the
EU presidency by hitting the 'newsletter' link.)
