«We didn’t need their support. We won the war. It was somehow irrelevant! I have to go, I have a big meeting going on, but we won the war in Iran. We didn’t need their help. Thank you very much”: this is what US President Donald Trump said on the phone with Daniele Compatangelo, reported this morning on La7’s Omnibus, responding to a question on the role of European leaders and the G7 in relation to the crisis with Iran. Trump also claimed that the support of European allies was “irrelevant”, claiming that the US achieved the objectives without their contribution.
Tajani: “For Trump, the EU is irrelevant? It’s not our war, but let’s do our part”
«Trump says that Europe was irrelevant and that the United States won the war alone? It was not a war we participated in and should not have participated in. We do our part. Europe is present and Italy is present to guarantee maritime traffic in the Red Sea. We are present, we do our part but we were not, are not and will not be at war with Iran.” Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani said this on the sidelines of the conference of Italian Consuls at the Farnesina.

The agreement between Iran and the United States to end the war will be signed in Geneva. This was stated by Axios, which cites diplomatic sources according to which four C17 cargo planes are headed to Europe to set up the ceremony in which Vice President JD Vance will participate in Washington. “The European allies have not been helpful now, but they can be very helpful in the future, after” the agreement with Iran. This was stated by US President Donald Trump in a telephone conversation with Corriere della Sera. On possible diplomatic developments with EU partners following an agreement with Tehran, the American leader replied: “I have no idea, it depends on them”.
