German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said the US is being “humiliated” by Iranian leaders as President Donald Trump struggles to negotiate an end to the war. Speaking to a group of students yesterday, Merz said an “entire nation is being humiliated by the Iranian leadership, particularly by these so-called Revolutionary Guards.” The comments risk driving a wedge in transatlantic relations.
