Trump to Merz: He doesn't know what he's talking about

U.S. President Donald Trump responded to criticisms directed at the U.S. by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Trump said, "German Chancellor Friedrich Merz thinks it's okay for Iran to have a nuclear weapon. He doesn't know what he's talking about.

If Iran had a nuclear weapon, the whole world would be held hostage.

Right now, I am doing with Iran what other nations or presidents should have done a long time ago. It is not surprising that Germany is in such bad shape, both economically and in other areas," he said.

Merz had criticized the U.S. over Iran in two separate statements yesterday. In his first statement, Merz had used the expressions, "The U.S. is being humiliated and belittled by the Iranian regime."

In his second statement, Merz expressed his disappointment with the U.S. and Israel regarding their stance on Iran, saying, "Yes, I am disappointed about this now, and the reason is very simple.

The United States and Israel assumed from the very beginning that this problem would be solved in a few days, and what we need to understand today is that the problem has not been solved," he had said.
