Ismail Bakai, spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, criticized the positions of German Chancellor Friedrich Merts regarding the war with Iran on the X social network.
Bakay wrote that Mertes once enthusiastically described Israel's attack on Iran as doing "dirty work" for the West, but a few months after imposing more than 100 billion euros in additional costs due to rising energy prices to the European economy, he is speaking out. Mertes recently said that the war with Iran over the past eight months has created more than 100 billion euros in additional costs for European companies and consumers.
The spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of the Islamic Republic of Iran also accused the German Foreign Minister of ignoring the human losses, what he called "war crimes" and the economic consequences of the war on Germany and Europe.
In the end, referring to the German proverb "a man grows wiser from his loss", Beckay wrote that the "lost miracle" does not seem to be a lesson to be learned. Along with this article, he published a picture of the character "Hans the Airless" from the German children's book in front of the Reichstag building.
