Trump Being ‘Humiliated’ in Iran Talks, German Leader Says

The US is being “humiliated” by Iranian leaders as President Donald Trump struggles to negotiate an end to the war, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said in comments that risk driving a further wedge in transatlantic relations.

In unusually candid terms, the German leader said he didn’t see “what strategic exit the Americans are now choosing,” adding that Tehran’s negotiators are proceeding “very skilfully — or indeed very skilfully not negotiating.”
