"Very recently, this week, we got a new US administration. President Trump, as is now clear, will be a challenge," Scholz said at a joint news conference with French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris.
He also said Europe and the US have a long history of friendship and partnership. "We are building relations on this solid foundation," the chancellor stated.
Trump already made or announced some decisions that can be studied, according to the German official.
"Of course, we will carefully analyze them together with our European partners," Scholz said.
