Spanish“We have long-standing concerns about Iran’s nuclear program and support Israel’s right to self-defense,” he stated on the plane to the G7 on Saturday. “However, it is crucial that the situation de-escalates.”
Despite Iran launching multiple missiles at Israel since hostilities began on Friday, the U.S. and U.K. have not reported assisting Israel in intercepting them, unlike last year when Iran fired missiles at Israel.
On Sunday, Trump denied U.S. involvement in the Israeli attack on Iran, where Israel targeted nuclear facilities and key figures on Friday, leading to Tehran’s retaliation.
After three days of conflict between Iran and Israel, German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul suggested late Saturday that talks be arranged within the next week to de-escalate tensions.
“I hope that’s still possible,” Wadephul told ARD late on Saturday. “Germany, along with France and Britain, are ready to engage. We’re offering Iran immediate negotiations about the nuclear program, and I hope the offer is accepted.”
World leaders continue to urge restraint, concerned that the conflict might spread in the already war-torn region.
