Drinks, sausage, cheese – and a sheepshead game. With Bavarian delicacies in a backpack, Prime Minister Markus Söder says goodbye to the participants of the G7 summit at Schloss Elmau.
Bavaria’s Prime Minister Markus Söder continues to make every effort to ensure that his state (and maybe he himself) leaves a lasting impression on the participants of the G7 summit at Schloss Elmau (Garmisch-Partenkirchen district). After the “Welcome Schmonzette” and the “Greeting in traditional costume”, the CSU boss now presented another treat for the powerful from the Munich State Chancellery.
Markus Söder: Backpacks from Bavaria for G7 participants
As a farewell gift, they are given a retro-style “Bavarian backpack”, as the Bavarian proudly announces on his Instagram account – “full of Bavarian specialities”. “World-famous” foods such as sausage, cheese and sweets should not be missing. Drinks are also in the hiking backpack, although Cola-Light lover Söder does not explain whether Emmanuel Macron will be able to put gentian schnapps or Spezi in the house bar of the Élysée Palace in the future. At least the neck of a bottle of beer looks out of the backpack shown – obviously that of a “Kulmbacher”, recognizable by the crown cap. However, alcohol-free. And for a neat round of Schafkopf in the Oval Office, Joe Biden can now fall back on Bavarian playing cards. So that no one of the recipients forgets where they were in July 2022, a real Bavarian gingerbread heart, known from the Oktoberfest, with the inscription “Greetings from Bavaria” dangles from the piece of luggage.
“Bayern should be remembered well,” says Söder and apparently hopes that the backpack will do its part. On Tuesday afternoon it will be clear what the heads of state and government of the G7 countries and the invited partner countries will take home with them in addition to their rucksacks. Then the G7 summit in Bavaria ends with the final declaration and a press conference by the actual host, Chancellor Olaf Scholz (SPD).
