German foreign minister blames Iran's nuclear ambitions, militia support for conflict

German Foreign Minister Johann Fadevoll has accused Iran of fueling conflict, saying the country is not acting peacefully or amicably, and that its pursuit of nuclear weapons and support for militias are driving tensions.

Fadevoll added that Iran's behavior gives others justification to respond, including with military action.

The German minister's remarks come amid rising tensions over Iran's nuclear program and its regional role.
