Berlin: German Chancellor Angela Merkel raised health concerns after she was seen visibly shaking during a ceremony in Berlin to welcome new Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Tuesday.

Standing alongside Zelenskiy in the sweltering heat while a military band played the national anthems of two countries outside the chancellery, the German chancellor shook violently for about a minute.

The incident apparently passed without further mishap as once the anthems had died down, Merkel took a moment to greet military band and then proceeded inside the building quickly, reported Sputnik news agency.
