US President Donald Trump escalated tensions with Iran on Thursday night, threatening attacks on Iranian bridges and power plants. In his statement he stressed that "the regime's leadership knows what needs to be done," making clear his expectations of the Iranian leadership. These threats come at a time when Trump also issued an ultimatum to European allies – threatening to withdraw from NATO and halt aid to Ukraine if they do not assist him in opening the Strait of Hormuz. ta3.com ↗ irozhlas.cz ↗
Trump's aggressive approach has continued to unite European leaders against him. French President Emmanuel Macron criticized the inconsistent communication coming from the White House and described Trump's remarks about his own marriage as "inelegant." Polish officials pointed to the paradox that without the US there is no NATO, but without NATO there is no American power either. Germany is expressing concerns about a possible withdrawal of American troops, which would destabilize the Ramstein military base. Officials in Tallinn are demanding clear communication about the future of the North Atlantic Alliance. hlavnespravy.sk ↗ idnes.cz ↗
At the same time, households are facing rising fuel prices as a result of the war and Trump's rhetoric. Trump's plan for ending the conflict remains unclear to economists and observers alike – he himself admits that the war will last another two to three weeks. Experts warn of potential violations of international law in attacks on civilian infrastructure, which could constitute war crimes. hnonline.sk ↗ zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗
