The events in Berlin followed the centenary anniversary ceremony of the WWI armistice near Paris last week.

Later Macron and Merkel held talks at the Chancellery. At the press briefing before the talks, Merkel said the two leaders will talk about the future of the eurozone, and the measures to develop in the digital era, including the issue of digital tax.

Germany and France agreed on Friday on a proposal for a common budget for eurozone member states within the EU's overall budget, according to a document seen by the German News Agency (DPA).

Merkel said she will also discuss with Macron with the defense of Europe, especially the establishment of a long-term European army, which was called by Macron earlier this month and was quickly responded by Merkel last week.

Macron said he would talk about energy transition and environmental protection, and of course the migration issue, saying that it was not new for Europe, but there is ability to make significant progress.
