Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul says Tehran must take verifiable confidence-building measures and demonstrate it is not seeking nuclear weapons

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul on Wednesday called on Iran to take urgent steps toward a diplomatic solution to end the escalating conflict with Israel.

Speaking at a joint news conference with his Jordanian counterpart in Berlin, Wadephul said Germany, France, and the UK (E3 countries) stand ready to contribute to a diplomatic solution. However, he emphasized that Tehran must take the first steps.

“Together with my French and British counterparts, as well as with the EU's foreign policy chief, we held a telephone conversation with the Iranian foreign minister on Monday and made a clear proposal. We as the E3 remain ready to negotiate a solution,” Wadephul said.

“But Iran must act urgently to achieve this. Iran must take verifiable, confidence-building measures—specifically by demonstrating that Tehran's leadership does not seek nuclear weapons. It's never too late to come to the negotiating table with honest intentions," he stressed.
