An unexpected question sparked laughter during a joint press conference between Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, as a reporter asked whether Meloni was becoming Merz’s “primary partner in Europe” — effectively replacing French President Emmanuel Macron.
The light-hearted moment came amid serious discussion over the long-delayed EU–Mercosur trade deal, which Italy backed after securing protections for its agricultural sector. Meloni rejected the idea of replacing anyone, calling instead for serious cooperation among Europe’s major powers and warning against “childish” foreign-policy rivalries.
Merz praised Italy’s role in supporting the agreement but criticized the European Parliament’s move to delay implementation, calling the timing “regrettable” as global pressure mounts on the EU to act decisively.
The Mercosur deal — 25 years in the making — removes 90% of tariffs between the EU and South American nations, but has faced strong opposition from France, Poland, and farmers across Europe.
Watch the moment leaders crack up.
