Matthew Fisher: Merkel’s moment to lead? Trump’s exit from Paris accord further riles Europe


MUNICH — There are few in Europe who reckon that Donald Trump has treated them worse than the Germans. It is a fury that is likely to grow after Trump announced Thursday he’s pulling out of the Paris climate agreement. It has become smart electoral politics for Merkel to campaign against Trump rather than her domestic opponents. At least in public, Trudeau has not yet revealed a deep personal understanding of any of the hot files. With both taking centre stage, commentators in both countries are saying Trump has “awakened Europe”, as Le Figaro put it.
