Chancellor Friedrich Merz expressed dissatisfaction with the Israeli government's actions in Gaza during an interview. He reiterated this sentiment in prior communications with Prime Minister Netanyahu. Merz advocated for a two-state solution, affirming the Palestinians' right to live in their own state. He deemed the current situation unacceptable, but did not address the hostages or casualties resulting from the conflict. As the Bundestag enters a summer recess, Merz's administration grapples with a coalition crisis, overshadowing any claims of economic improvements or successful governance.
"I have not liked what the Israeli government has been doing in the Gaza Strip for many weeks now."
"The way things are going at the moment is unacceptable."
"The Palestinians have a right to a place where they can live."
"I hope that the Europeans, together with the US, can bring about a solution to the conflict that ultimately leads to a two-state solution."
