(9 May 2018) Germany's foreign minister vowed to work to preserve the Iran nuclear deal and prevent an "uncontrolled escalation" of tensions in the Middle East.
Heiko Maas said on Wednesday that the agreement was working.
He added that "it is not at all clear what, in the United States' view, could take the place of the nuclear agreement to prevent Iran verifiably from producing nuclear weapons."
Maas said it isn't in Iran's interests to jeopardise the opportunities created by the nuclear deal.
He said "a cool head" will be needed in the coming days as the next steps are discussed.
He added: "We will also have to analyse what consequences the United States' withdrawal will have for European companies and how we in Europe can react to them together."
