Upd: the picture was from Bild - and turns out was cropped! I appreciate my readers who spotted that, thank you! - Aure

Annalena Baerbock wasn't leaving in that photo, just talking to someone else (and she later said she didn't notice Scholz reaching out to her).
Here is the same photo without the suggestive cropping.
@joosteto @Free_Press Thanks for this. Regardless of political persuasion, we all need to be on the lookout for deceptive news in social media.
@joosteto @Free_Press wow, who cropped it first?
@der_haken one of Mr. Döpfners workingdrones, aka some person in the BILD redaction @joosteto @Free_Press
@joosteto @Free_Press Boost this picture and keep it alive as an example of disinformation. The picture itself seems to have disappeared from the internet.
Google lens only shows the cropped picture
