Berlin under Trump's fire: Merz accused of 'interfering' in Iran

Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media

ANALYSIS

Germany experiences the Iran-Trump war as an additional transatlantic humiliation. Chancellor Merz criticized Washington's Iran strategy, and Trump publicly told him to focus on Ukraine rather than 'interfering' on Iran. DW documents this exchange as a marker of deteriorating German-American relations. On Iran's nuclear program, German media frames Khamenei's vow to protect nuclear capabilities as an alarm bell for global non-proliferation — especially sensitive for Germany, where debates over its own nuclear deterrent have resurfaced.
