The shadow of Trump and Israel's war in Iran is over Europe Trita Farsi, Vice President of the Quincy think tank: Over the past few days, I have spoken with several European officials from a different political spectrum; Among the people who strongly oppose immigration. Almost everyone agrees on one thing: the cost of living crisis that ignited protests across Europe was caused by the consequences of the war that Trump and Israel started with Iran; A war that was their choice. Europe has managed to largely control the consequences of the war in Ukraine and keep its costs under control. But the Iran war and the unprecedented costs it imposed on the world economy were a major shock for Europe. This is another sign that the destabilizing consequences of the Iran war have so far exceeded even the huge, destabilizing consequences of the war that George W. Bush against Iraq in his choice.
