Iran has warned European leaders against joining the US and Israel’s actions in the Middle East, which have caused instability. Despite condemning Iran’s retaliatory strikes in the Gulf, European countries have been unclear in their response. Germany has aligned with the US and Israel, breaking away from the UK and France, who supported negotiations with Iran after the US revoked the 2015 nuclear deal. Spain has taken a principled stance against the strikes, while the UK has allowed its military base in Cyprus to be used for defensive purposes. Europe is considering defensive actions, with Greece sending fighter aircraft and frigates to defend Cyprus. Ukraine, a future EU member, supports efforts to counter Iran’s threats. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen is calling for containment and de-escalation in the region.
