"After yet another day of United States and Israeli strikes against Iran, Washington says there are more to come, warning of a dramatic surge. But with the exception of Israel, the US has not secured the active participation of any of its main allies, as was the case in previous conflicts like Iraq and Afghanistan."
"US President Donald Trump has not hidden his frustration with European leaders, many of whom say the ongoing war is a breach of international law. That view is shared by other global players like China and Russia."
The United States and Israel have launched strikes against Iran with warnings of escalating military action. However, unlike previous conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, the US has failed to secure active participation from its primary allies. European leaders oppose the ongoing war, citing violations of international law, a position shared by China and Russia. President Trump has expressed frustration with European reluctance to support the military campaign. The discussion examines whether the US can sustain this conflict without allied support and addresses the geopolitical implications of this diplomatic isolation.
