    Germany’s Merz to visit Washington in March, Die Welt reports

    -

    BERLIN -, Feb ​6 (Reuters) - German Chancellor Friedrich Merz will make his third ⁠visit to Washington in early March, amid efforts to ease ‍transatlantic tensions between European nations ​and U.S. President Donald Trump, German daily Die Welt reported on ​Friday.

    There was no immediate comment from Merz's office.

    The news comes around a week before the start of ‌the Munich Security Conference, the ‌high-level annual meeting of security policy ​specialists that saw blistering criticism of the United States' European ‌NATO partners by U.S. Vice ⁠President JD Vance.

    Vance is not ‌expected to ​come to the conference this year but Secretary of State ⁠Marco Rubio ⁠and a Congressional delegation are scheduled ​to attend.
