French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday said it would be unrealistic to launch a military operation to force open the Strait of Hormuz after US President Donald Trump challenged allies to work towards reopening it. In unusually strong criticism, Macron accused Trump of constantly contradicting himself on the Iran war and of undermining faith in the NATO military alliance.
What other side is there? If Europe, Russia, and China reach a deal with Iran, Trump would feel isolated if he doesn’t join. Also, what would be the purpose for him to continue fighting?
If Russia doesn’t reach a deal.
