German Chancellor Angela Merkel is seen shaking as she met President Frank-Walter Steinmeier, her second such bout within two weeks, but her spokesman said she was fine and she headed off to Japan for this weekend's G20 summit.
Asked if the chancellor will take part in this weekend's G20 meeting in Japan, the spokesman says: "Everything is taking place as planned. The chancellor is well."
Merkel later leaves on a flight to Osaka for the G20 meeting.
