In the 750-page book, she describes, among other things, meetings with several world leaders. Some meetings in the book that, according to SVT’s European correspondent Christoffer Wendick, stand out include when Donald Trump ignored Merkel and neglected to shake hands, or when Vladimir Putin let his dogs roam the room, even though he knew Merkel was afraid of dogs.

– You can see in the pictures how they are in front and sniffing at Merkel, and she writes that he really enjoyed seeing her uncomfortable in this way, says Christoffer Wendick.
