Matt Hoye

Flags line the White House driveway, as welcoming ceremony about to get under way for Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari. Reminder that German Chancellor Angela Merkel's reception last week in same spot did not have any military honors in the driveway.

Lol Angela Merkel is not a president! She's just the chancellor equivalent to that of a prime minister! So both have different protocols.

You don't receive president and a chancellor the same way. Different protocols.

The German Chancellor is the head of Government, just like PMB, Emanuel Macron, Teressa May and they all have the same diplomatic reference.


Angela Merkel is the head of the German government and the fact that we have a presidential system of government doesn't mean our president is above or more important than a prime minister.


It's like saying Teressa May of England is below PMB per diplomatic scale.



That was ignorant on your part.

Mr ignoramus! The president is the head of state and it's different from that of a chancellor both have different protocols during official diplomatic visits to other countries. This is because she reports to president and the both work in hand! Yes the chancellor or the prime minister in parliamentary rule is the head of government and she forms her government and reports to the head of state which happens to be either the president or the Queen ( as in United kingdom) or whoever is the head in the country.
And need I remind you that Germany has a president too! Mr I know too much about nothing.

May be Trump has to be ready because he cant trust the man coming to visit him.
Thats why you can see the military evrywhere unlike the German chancellor.

Remember we are dealing with Fulani Terrorists and Boko haram.

The fact that we have a presidential system of government doesn't mean our President is more powerful or must obtain better diplomatic priviledges than any prime minister or the German chancellor.

Again, is the Nigerian president more powerful diplomatically than the German chancellor or the British prime minister?

No.

The Chancellor's visit wasn't her first visit to the WH, she's been to the WH several times and even a State dinner was thrown in her honor, something only visiting powerful leaders get.

So, why did Emmanuel Macron get the prestigious State dinner at the White House last week and PMB didn't get a State dinner.? Is Macron not a prime minister? Is the German chancellor not a prime minister?


Stop embarrassing yourself with your elementary school ignorance.

Angela Merkel is not a head of state (the president of Germany is the head of state of Germany).
Re: Matt Hoye Compares Buhari's White House Reception To That Of Angela Merkel by ibotic(f): 3:38pm On May 01, 2018
The President of Nigeria is also the head of the armed forces of Nigeria. In Germany, the Chancellor who is Angela Merkel is the head of government but Germany has a separate President who is Frank-Walter Steinmeier....they have a similar system to the British...this might explain the difference in their receptionhuh...not too surehuh
