German President Condemns Trump’s Actions on Iran
“In my opinion, this war is a violation of international law,” Frank-Walter Steinmeier stated during a speech at the German Foreign Ministry.
"There is little doubt that the justification of an imminent attack on the US is invalid -- a view also shared by many in the American bureaucracy,” he added, seemingly referencing recent resignations tied to the contentious conflict.
Steinmeier, who once served as Germany’s foreign minister and played a key role in negotiating the 2015 nuclear agreement with Iran, argued that Trump’s 2018 decision to abandon the deal and pursue military measures was a misstep in resolving tensions.
"This war is a politically disastrous mistake, and what frustrates me most is that this is a truly avoidable, unnecessary war if its goal was to stop Iran on its path to developing a nuclear bomb," Steinmeier said, marking his strongest public condemnation so far of the ongoing hostilities.
