German Foreign Minister Urges Iran to Abandon Missile Program
Berlin, Germany – German Foreign Minister Johann Vandeful reiterated on Wednesday the call for Iran to abandon its ballistic missile program, characterizing the situation as increasingly urgent. Speaking alongside Israeli counterpart Gideon Saar at a joint press conference in Berlin, Vandeful emphasized the need for Iran to realistically assess its standing within the international community. “Both Germany and Israel share completely common security interests,” Vandeful stated.
“It is consistently more imperative that Iran accept the existing offers for negotiations.” The German foreign minister highlighted recent developments, including the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and heightened tensions involving Iran, as factors contributing to the escalating concern.

Saar echoed Vandeful’s sentiments, reaffirming Israel’s commitment to regional stability and security. The joint statement underscored a unified position between the two nations regarding Iran’s destabilizing activities.
