President Donald Trump took another slap at Germany’s leader over his criticism earlier this week of the U.S. war against Iran.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz faulted the 79-year-old president for launching the war without an apparent exit strategy, saying the U.S. has been “humiliated” by Iranian leadership, and Trump lobbed another social media attack after threatening to reduce American troops stationed in Germany.
“The Chancellor of Germany should spend more time on ending the war with Russia/Ukraine (Where he has been totally ineffective!),” Trump posted on Truth Social, “and fixing his broken Country, especially Immigration and Energy, and less time on interfering with those that are getting rid of the Iran Nuclear threat, thereby making the World, including Germany, a safer place! President DJT.”
Trump has frequently railed against NATO allies for refusing to assist in the Iran war he authorized at the end of February, and he responded to Merz’s criticism by threatening to draw down the military forces that have been stationed in Germany since the start of the Cold War.
“The United States is studying and reviewing the possible reduction of Troops in Germany, with a determination to be made over the next short period of time,” Trump said in a social media post.
