德国总理弗里德里希·默茨周五呼吁通过外交途径解决涉及伊朗的冲突。此前有报道称，美国和以色列可能对德黑兰再次发动军事行动。
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz called Friday for a diplomatic solution to the conflict involving Iran amid reports that the US and Israel could launch renewed military operations against Tehran.
据德国新闻社德新社报道，默茨在韩国首都首尔表示：“我只能呼吁冲突各方：这场冲突无法通过军事手段解决。”
"I can only appeal to all parties to the conflict: This conflict cannot be resolved by military means," Merz said in the South Korean capital Seoul, according to German news agency dpa.
他还说：“我们正在通过许多渠道努力协调并加强外交努力，以便尽快结束这场冲突。”默茨还强调，德国在结束敌对行动方面有着强烈的经济利益。
"We are working through many channels to coordinate and intensify our diplomatic efforts so that this conflict can be brought to an end as quickly as possible," he added. Merz also stressed Germany's strong economic interest in ending the hostilities.
《华尔街日报》周二援引了解相关对话的人士报道称，华盛顿已告知几个海湾阿拉伯国家，要为美国11月3日中期选举后对伊朗发动“短暂而猛烈的军事行动”做好准备。
The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday that Washington had told several Gulf Arab countries to prepare for a "short, intense military campaign" against Iran after the Nov. 3 US midterm elections, citing people briefed on the conversations.
据该报报道，这些通过外交和军事渠道传递的信息，是越来越多的迹象之一，表明美国和以色列正在准备大规模作战行动，旨在削弱伊朗并施压德黑兰重返谈判。
The messages, conveyed through diplomatic and military channels, were among growing indications that the US and Israel were preparing major combat operations aimed at weakening Iran and pressuring Tehran to return to negotiations, according to the newspaper.
