Merkel wants to intensify the dialogue with the US, extend the cooperation on international security and says the cooperation regarding Iran is encouraging.
Hi Michael! I think Chancellor Merkel will be a very good improvement for your country and for freedom-loving people everywhere. I hope she can help with the German economy too.
Now Bush answers a question on Guantanamo. Merkel wants more judicial control, like a tribunal. The President says there won´t be changes and maintain the camps, "in which the people are treated in a human manner".
Merkel: "We openly talked about this issue. I share the perceiption of the danger going out of terrorism. We need to think about the way we want to treat terrorists. I wished the UN would be a place to discuss such things, which isn´t right now. ... I see a common base on which we can talk the questionable details, and that is good."
