Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Germany Signals Possible Sanctions on Israel Amid Gaza Crisis
Caption: Germany Signals Possible Sanctions on Israel Amid Gaza Crisis. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has signaled a possible shift in policy toward Israel, saying his government “reserves the right” to reconsider the EU’s association agreement with the country due to the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza - According to Politico. Speaking in Berlin on Monday, Merz said Germany will also join an international airlift to deliver food and medical supplies to Palestinians, partnering with Jordan, France, and the UK. While traditionally a close ally of Israel, Germany is now under growing pressure — both domestically and internationally — to take stronger action. Merz said he would wait for the outcome of a Middle East visit by his foreign minister before deciding on further steps, and declined to comment on possible suspension of German arms shipments to Israel.
