Bundestag Experts Declare US-Israel Actions Against Iran Violating International Law
A report by the Bundestag’s Scientific Services concludes that the military actions by the US and Israel against Iran constitute a violation of international law, lacking justification under self-defense or UN Security Council authorization.
The analysis suggests that Germany’s potential facilitation of these actions through US military bases could also implicate it in violations, depending on specific circumstances. While the German government has yet to officially assess the legality of the conflict, members of the ruling coalition and President Frank-Walter Steinmeier have labeled the actions as unlawful. Calls for Germany to withdraw support for the military operations have intensified, particularly from the Left Party’s defense spokesperson.
