The German president holds a largely ceremonial role that allows more freedom for criticism compared with other politicians in the nation. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has also raised concerns about the war but emphasized maintaining relations with the U.S.

Merz is a member of the conservative Christian Democratic Union of Germany.

But Steinmeier, a member of the center-left Social Democratic Party, called the war a “politically disastrous mistake” that had irrevocably harmed transatlantic relations.

Merz later said he supported Iranian regime change at the hands of the U.S. and Israel.

Following a meeting with the German chancellor at the White House last week, Trump told reporters in the Oval Office that Germany has “been great” and levied criticism toward other European allies, including the U.K. and Spain.

At same time wouldn’t mind gulf states losing money

Literally why saying were only sending defensive arms is pointless. Giving them protection from their own violent instigations only let’s them do more damage rather than keep the country safe.

It’s not but the one they’re replying too is trying to make it one to downplay how terrible Isreal is behaving

Oh no, the special thing that made Israel feel like invincible and led to them being super aggressive and antagonistic does not work. What ever will those being oppressed by them do!?

Dems will complain he didn’t let then vote on it while also saying he had no choice 😑😞🙃

We’re at the point both sides could just be waiting for him to wipe Iran off the map before doing anything since can just make Trump the scapegoat and finally get their wished for attack on Iran

No cause he’s also gonna ban evs

And if you don’t leave they’ll blame them for getting killed.

well we warned them we’d be bombing everything

So put them here
