Iran is reportedly considering strikes against US military assets in Europe if Washington launches another major offensive against Tehran. Could the Iran-US war now expand beyond the Middle East?
In this detailed analysis, Pankaj Mishra examines the reported Iranian plans involving potential US-linked military assets in Bulgaria and Cyprus, and what an expansion of the conflict into Europe could mean for NATO, the United States and America's European allies.
The report raises a crucial question: Will Donald Trump respond if Iranian forces target US military infrastructure in Europe, just as Washington has responded to threats against its Middle Eastern partners and American forces?
We examine why Europe could become the next theatre of the Iran war, what types of US-linked infrastructure could come under pressure, and why the Strait of Hormuz remains central to Tehran's strategy.
Could Iran expand its asymmetric strategy from missiles and military bases to logistics, communications and critical infrastructure?
Could an Iranian attack on a NATO member trigger a much larger American and European response?
And most importantly: Can the Iran-US war still be contained?
Watch the full analysis with Pankaj Mishra.
