as posted by the channel

So far, Chancellor Merz's approach to the war in Iran could be described as measured and strategic. He hasn't repudiated the joint US-Israeli military action, but he has also not fully embraced the Trump administration's regime change rhetoric. Ahead of the visit to the Oval Office, Friedrich Merz posted a

message on X that spoke about cooperation with Germany's allies, while also saying, "This is not the moment to lecture our allies, but to stand together in unity."
