European leaders have responded cautiously as Israel and the U.S. strike Iran and the region edges toward wider war. On Saturday, the EU’s top diplomat called the situation perilous and pushed for negotiated peace. Kaja Kallas said Iran’s missile and nuclear programs and support for terror groups threaten global security. She said the EU is coordinating with Arab partners, evacuating some staff and keeping a Red Sea maritime mission. Germany is monitoring events and plans a crisis meeting. France urges extreme caution and is focusing on protecting citizens and forces. U.S. President Trump urged Iranians to take cover, then to take over their government.
