On the sidelines of the G7 summit in Evian, France, the German Chancellor presented the U.S. President with a German national team jersey featuring the number 47 and the name "Trump." The number is an obvious reference to Trump currently serving as the 47th President of the United States. This was reported by DW, according to UNN.
Details
Media outlets note that Merz gave this gift to Trump on the occasion of the American leader's 80th birthday, which he celebrated last Sunday.
At the same time, as the agency notes, Trump prefers combat sports over football: for his birthday, he organized UFC fights on the White House grounds, and he missed the first match of the U.S. national football team at the 2026 World Cup being held in the country.
Recall
World boxing champion Oleksandr Usyk met with Donald Trump in the Oval Office of the White House. The Ukrainian thanked him for the warm welcome and published new photos.
