Merz-Trump Rift Was a 'Misunderstanding,' Wadephul Says

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul discusses Chancellor Friedrich Merz's clash with US President Donald Trump. Last month Merz told an audience that the US is being "humiliated" by Iranian leaders. Trump responded by saying the German Chancellor shouldn't interfere, and should focus on ending Russia's war with Ukraine instead. Wadephul talks with Bloomberg News Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait in Berlin.
