7:11 am
businesswoman. it's complicated like the state of u.s./german relations right now. the conference was about improving the role of working women, but the first thing ivanka trump had to do was defend her father's attitude toward women. >> i've certainly heard the criticism from the media and that's been perpetuated but i know from personal experience -- >> reporter: but she's also here because angela merkel knows an opportunity when she sees one. when the german chancellor went to washington to meet ivanka's father the atmosphere bordered on icy. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> reporter: so when angela merkel met ivanka and invite herd to the berlin women's conference, that invitation was about more than playing to the first daughter's interests. political analysts here, like josef braml, say it was a way to use the side door to get into the white house.
