Statement out from Macron aide 12 May
Almost typed Merlin in the headline !
Newly elected French president to meet Germany's Merkel to stress importance of relationship and re-launching European project, a day after his inauguration.
Re-launch ? Post Brexit ? Wow, let's see where that takes the EU. More politico-speak from both sides as UK prepares to say cheerio.
Says the aide:
"We want to work together on a few priorities: security, investment and social protection."
- Macron will also visit French troops abroad "very quickly" after Berlin
