The day opened with Trump's condemnation of Iran's response to the US nuclear proposal as 'completely unacceptable', a story that dominated early headlines across Spiegel, FAZ, Tagesspiegel, and FR. By mid-morning, the focus shifted to domestic politics: the collapse of the 1,000-euro relief bonus, with Welt reconstructing how the chancellor lost control of his coalition, and Bild raising concerns about Chinese firms rescuing German auto jobs. In the afternoon, the Schröder mediation proposal for Ukraine gained traction, with Spiegel and Junge Freiheit reporting on EU rejection and AfD support, while Pistorius warned of a Putin deception. Evening coverage turned to China's auto market crash due to the oil crisis (Spiegel) and the Trump succession race between Vance and Rubio (Tagesspiegel).
