The IMF head and possible French presidential contender Strauss-Kahn was arrested and charged with sexual assault, including an attempted rape, on a hotel maid in New York City, police said on Sunday.

"The talks are canceled," a senior German government representative said and no replacement for Strauss-Kahn would be sent to Berlin, he said.

Strauss-Kahn had been expected to discuss the euro zone debt crisis with Merkel.
