Germany’s Merz warns against ‘endless war’ in Iran – POLITICO

Politico News

BERLIN — German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said Tuesday that he is increasingly worried about the apparent lack of a strategy by the U.S. and Israel for winding down their war on Iran.

“What concerns us most is that there is clearly no common plan for bringing this war to a swift and convincing conclusion,” Merz said in the chancellery. “We have no interest in an endless war.”

Merz’s comments come as America and Israel continue to strike Iran, while Tehran has been retaliating against countries around the Gulf, as the spiraling regional conflict roils global energy markets.
