Happening Now: Trump, German Chancellor Give Remarks Amid Iran Conflict

President Trump and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz are holding a bilateral meeting at the White House on Tuesday, just days after the U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Iran. Merz is the first world leader to meet face-to-face with Trump since the attacks. While the meeting was planned in advance, the widening conflict in the Middle East will likely change the discourse away from purely economics — though it will provide Germany a chance to press for more European influence in the region. Germany, the United Kingdom and France were quick to issue a joint statement Saturday urging Washington and Tehran to go back to the negotiating table over Iran's nuclear program. On Sunday, they condemned the Iranian regime for launching "indiscriminate and disproportionate" strikes on neighboring countries.
