Mideast war 'nothing to do with NATO': German Chancellor

The war in the Middle East started by U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran has "nothing to do with NATO" and is "not NATO's war", German Chancellor Friedrich Merz's spokesman said Monday.

"NATO is an alliance for the defence of territory" and "the mandate to deploy NATO is lacking" in the current situation, Stefan Kornelius said at a regular press briefing.
