Following the anthems, Merkel managed to get herself together and was seen walking quickly alongside Zelensky into the chancellery. The German leader later told reporters that she has fully recovered after drinking several glasses of water.

The 64-year-old stateswoman has had similar bouts of trembling in the past, according to DPA International, and in at least one other case blamed the hot weather.
In 2014, she postponed a TV interview stating she felt weak, but was able to carry on after eating, her spokesperson said.
Despite rumors of ill health, however, it is not clear whether Merkel suffers from any health problems.
