Israel-Iran Airstrikes Continue as Europe Seeks Diplomatic Solution

The focus of military conflict in the Middle East has shifted from Gaza to Iran, with Israel intensifying attacks on Iranian targets as part of a campaign to end Iran's nuclear program. Israel's military is closely integrated with the U.S. Central Command, allowing it access to advanced munitions and coordinated operations alongside U.S. and Arab forces. Meanwhile, European nations including France, Germany, and the UK are actively engaged in diplomatic efforts to de-escalate tensions, meeting with Iranian officials to seek a negotiated resolution. U.S. President Donald Trump has indicated that a decision on American intervention in the conflict with Iran is imminent, while European leaders emphasize the urgent need to avoid further escalation. Despite its nuclear ambitions and the ongoing conflict, Iran pursues a balanced foreign policy, positioning itself as a strategic partner to Europe amid East-West tensions. Observers warn that while Iran's nuclear program poses a threat, a broader war risks destabilizing the region further, underscoring the necessity of a diplomatic solution that prevents both nuclear proliferation and regional chaos.
