...Strasbourg/ Kehl. A very symbolic moment- the gathered politicians meet and greet each others at the "Europabruecke" connecting France and Germany on the Rhine river for the annual NATO Summit. In the very moment, when Angela Merkel (German Chancellor) was heading to Silvio Berlusconi ( Italian Prime Minister for an embarrassing 3rd time?!) to greet him, his cell phone goes off- and guess what? He answers it! Hillarious shit! I have seen the most incredible diplomatic faux-pas' , but this tops it all for sure! He simply handles every single Italian stereotype. Remember : a cell phone is something imperative for every Italian. They don't have one, but at least 4 (!). YES! One for Mamma, one for their wife, one for "business" ( every Italian has some business going on!) and one for the rest. Sometimes there is one additional for the rest of the family ( the family is something essential for every Italian person!).
