Spanish Deputy Prime Minister Yolanda Díaz criticized German Chancellor Friedrich Merz for remaining silent during Trump's March 3 tirade against Spain at the White House, saying EU leaders must demonstrate leadership rather than deference to the U.S. president. The rebuke reflects broader tensions between Madrid and Berlin over Merz's failure to defend a fellow EU member and his support for U.S.-Israeli military actions, though German officials maintain the two countries' historically strong relationship remains intact.
