US President Donald Trump advised German Chancellor Friedrich Merz not to interfere in the Iran war.
Posting on Truth Social on Thursday, he said, “The Chancellor of Germany should spend more time on ending the war with Russia/Ukraine (Where he has been totally ineffective!).”
He suggested Merz to focus on “fixing his broken country, especially immigration and energy,” instead of “interfering with those that are getting rid of the Iran Nuclear threat, thereby making the World, including Germany, a safer place!”
Meanwhile, Germany’s Foreign Minister said the country was “prepared” for any reduction of US troop numbers in Germany, after Trump threatened such a move in a row with Chancellor Merz.
“We are prepared for that,” Johann Wadephul said during a visit to Morocco. “We are discussing it closely and in a spirit of trust in all NATO bodies, and we are expecting decisions from the Americans about this.”(EIR)
