He told her, did he? That sounds ridiculous.

    Muscat is imagining he has statesman potential.

  2. Agenda says:

    Did our Prime Minister manage to make Ms Merkel smell the coffee? I bet he gave her his road map.

  3. edgar says:

    Poor Merkel, she could not sleep that night. She was sh*t scared of Joseph Muscat and his ultimatums.

  4. gort says:

    While Libya is on the verge of becoming a failed state, Joe Mizzi gives an oil exploration licence to an Israeli oil company in an area disputed with Libya (Area5).

    Just the right kind of provocation to wind up the Islamist faction in Libya against Malta and bring Middle Eastern tensions to our doorstep.

    Great peace initiative, Joseph. Now go and tell Merkel how you are kindling the flames of international discord and expect Germany to intervene.

  5. vanni says:

    How nice.

    The office boy told the boss how to make the tea.

  6. tinnat says:

    I admit to admiring Merkel – where she came from, how she made it, etc etc, She must think Joseph Muscat is an absolute twit. One constant in what authors say about her is that she treats twits with the respect they deserve.

  7. Katrin says:

    It is more offensive that Merkel is referred to as ‘Ms Merkel’ but Muscat as ‘Dr Muscat’. She has a doctorate degree in physics apart from several ‘honoris causa’.

  8. Observer says:

    I wouldn’t wonder were we to know that her answer was “You can put Libya up your ….. O,K Siehbi”

  9. Joseph says:

    Actually in the article it says Nudge, which is totally different from giving a talking to.

  10. il busu says:

    Can you show us again the clip where Chancellor Merkel snubs and dismisses off Joseph Muscat? The expression on their faces, especially Joseph’s in the video clip is priceless.

  11. Mila says:

    And Ms Merkel said, ”Oh what a bright spark, now why didn’t I think of that?

  12. pirellu says:

    Like she needs to take advice from a rapidly aging toddler.

  13. scott brown says:

    Shouldn’t Malta’s Prime Minister be telling Merkel to keep Malta high on the agenda?

    Why LIbya?

    Shouldn’t Libya’s two Prime Ministers be doing that themselves?

  14. Bubu says:

    After he back-stabbed the rest of the EU (with Merkel as its de facto figurehead) with the passports-for-sale debacle, does Muscat really expect Merkel to humour him in anything?

    No wonder she obviously regards him with contempt. It’s obvious that she only speaks to him inasmuch as protocol mandates and no further; and that only because he follows her around, oblivious to her disdain, hoping to get a nice photo opportunity.

    Pathetic.
