Global News Podcast · US Congress receives classified briefing on war with Iran · 4 Mar 2026 podcast

But in a televised address, he said Iran was mostly to blame for this war.

The Islamic Republic of Iran bears primary responsibility for this situation.

It was Iran that developed a dangerous nuclear program and unprecedented ballistic missile capabilities and armed and financed terrorist groups in neighboring countries.

Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, Shia militias in Iraq, consistently stating its objective of destroying the state of Israel.

Mr Macron said he was deploying France's sole aircraft carrier, the Charles de Gaulle, to the region to help defend French citizens and allies.

Britain and Spain have been criticised by President Trump for not allowing the US free use of their military bases.

Speaking to reporters, Mr Trump said he was disappointed with the British Prime Minister Keir Starmer for refusing to allow him to use the UK base in Diego Garcia on the Chagos Islands for the initial strikes.

A global affairs reporter, Danny Abar, told us why Mr Trump had singled out Spain and the UK.

On the issue of the UK, Prime Minister Starmer has been trying very carefully since the first days of Trump's second administration to tread a fine line with Donald Trump.

And he's cultivated quite a good relationship with him, but that is coming under severe strain over Iran.

First of all, Keir Starmer said that the US couldn't use UK air bases and then changed his mind and said for certain, as he framed it, defensive operations.

He's talking about attacking, for example, missile sites in Iran that could be used to attack Iran.

UK interests in that region and also other Gulf allies of Britain that it was allowed to do that.

But that's annoyed Donald Trump all the same.

Hence that extremely derogatory comparison.

He's no Winston Churchill, the famous wartime leader of Britain in the Second World War.

So that will hurt, but Britain will hope to ride it out.

Britain has made clear that it will operate according to Britain's best interests in this case and on the basis of international law.

On the issue of Spain, Trump also very hard.

He was saying that he's going to cut off all trading links with Spain.
