German Chancellor says Iran humiliates its people

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has made a sharp public criticism of Iran's government, stating that 'an entire nation is being humiliated by the Iranian leadership, particularly by the so-called Revolutionary Guards.' His remarks come amid heightened tensions between Iran and the West, including the ongoing US-led conflict. The statement represents a significant diplomatic rebuke from a major European power. Merz's comments align with broader Western concerns over Iran's domestic policies and regional actions.
