What happens when the war in Iran is over?

Despite all the predictions that the war in Iran would only run for four to six weeks, or will be over in another two or three weeks, or has nearly been completed, etc etc, there is actually no sign yet of a slowing down of the strikes by the US and Israel, and no sign of Iran stopping retaliating. It could go on for weeks or months with mnore and more destruction throughout Iran and in the Middle East countries targeted by Tehran. However, when it does all come to a halt, what if anything will Donald Trump do to repair the massively damaged relationship between Washington and the whole of Europe? Or will he wait for Europe to make the first move? Right now, Trump is angry about Europe's attitude and wants to leave Nato, and Europe is angry at the way Trump has been treating all European governments, berating them for daring to go against him and preventing the US military from using European bases for offensive strikes on Iran. Actually, Britain is effectively allowing its RAF bases to be used as a transit point for bombers and ground-attack aircraft flying in from the US, and Keir Starmer's condition that they only be used for "defensive" operations is looking pretty woolly. Nevertheless, Europe has not welcomed Trump's war and relations now are so bad that whenever he speaks about his European partners he has nothing but insults for them. When the war is over, this will all have to stop. For everyone's sake. PLEASE BUY AGENT REDRUTH, MY NEW SPY THRILLER. AMAZON, ROWANVALE BOOKS, WATERSTOMES.
