Sigmar Gabriel, who was the last German Minister of Economics to visit Iran, shares his insights on the ongoing conflict involving the US and Israel against the Iranian regime. He posits that, unlike the perceived shamefulness of Germany in response to the situation, the United States does not exhibit the same disposition. Gabriel emphasizes that while he does not foresee a regime change in Tehran, he hopes for a resolution to the conflict that will primarily serve the interests of the United States.

Reflecting on his past efforts in 2015 to renew economic ties with Iran following the nuclear agreement, Gabriel critiques the current military engagements led by the US and Israel. He expresses skepticism about the efficacy and motivations behind these military actions, suggesting that an end to hostilities would not necessarily translate into a change of government in Iran but rather align with US strategic interests in the region.

Gabriel's remarks underscore a broader discussion about international relations and economic interests in the context of conflict. By highlighting the differences in approach between Germany and the US, he raises critical questions about ethical responses to international conflicts and the implications for future diplomatic efforts regarding Iran.
