On day four of the US–Israel war on Iran, the conflict is widening fast. Donald Trump says operations are ahead of schedule but warns the war could last longer than expected, as strikes hit Tehran and Iran retaliates across the Gulf. We examine Europe’s response — from emergency EU talks in Brussels to Greece deploying forces to defend Cyprus — and hear analysis from former CIA chief David Petraeus. How far could this war spread — and who can stop it?

All eyes on Geneva. Nuclear talks between the US and Iran resume today amid rising tensions, military posturing, and sharp rhetoric from Donald Trump. Is a deal within reach — or are both sides preparing for confrontation? We also turn to efforts to revive peace talks on Ukraine, five years into the war, and examine growing strains within Europe — from the Druzhba pipeline dispute to mounting pressure over EU–US trade relations. With tariff threats looming and political trust under scrutiny, can Brussels and Washington still find common ground? We are joined by top trade MEP Bernd Lange.

At a medieval castle in the Belgian countryside last week, European leaders gathered to discuss competitiveness, deregulation, industrial policy and the future of the Single Market. In this episode, we unpack what this retreat was all about: Who’s pushing for cutting red tape? Who wants deeper integration? Is deregulation the key to the EU’s economic growth? Is “pragmatic federalism” the secret ingredient for a powerful Europe? 

To answer these questions, we sit down with MLex managing editor for Europe, Kait Bolongaro, president of Eurochambres, Vladimír Dlouhý and President of the Foundation for European Progressive Studies and former EU Commissioner, Nicolas Schmit.
