German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has stated that Germany will not participate in the conflict against Iran, stressing the lack of authorization from the UN, EU, and NATO.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz made it clear during a press conference in Berlin that Germany will not be involved in the war against Iran, which he described as a matter beyond NATO's purview. Merz pointed out that Germany lacks the necessary mandate from international bodies like the UN, EU, or NATO, which is required by the German constitution for military engagements. He emphasized that discussions or agreements had not taken place between the U.S., Israel, and Germany prior to the onset of the conflict, making military involvement unfeasible.
