German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Thursday had a second brief spell of shaking in just over a week, renewing questions over the state of her health.

Merkel, 64, was seen trembling briefly and clasping her hands as she stood alongside President Frank-Walter Steinmeier during a swearing-in ceremony for the new justice minister, according to footage on German TV channel NTV. Moments later she appeared to be fine when she appeared in the plenary of the Bundestag, the country’s parliament.
