In a tweet from his Florida resort, where he is spending the weekend, the US president wrote that he had a “great” meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel this week, despite reports to the contrary.

Mr Trump wrote: “Despite what you have heard from the FAKE NEWS, I had a GREAT meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.”
