Only weeks after German officials at the Munich Conference spoke of the importance of international law, the German Chancellor completely sets it aside to throw Germany's full support behind Trump and Israel's illegal war on Iran.
“Legal assessments under international law will achieve relatively little in this regard… That is why now is not the moment to lecture our partners and allies; despite all doubts, we share many of their goals, without ourselves being able to actually achieve them.”
The last sentence is critical. Germany is positioning itself as a cobelligerent in this war. And Iran will likely treat it as such.
