London Mayor Sadiq Khan has vehemently criticized U.S. President Donald Trump's airstrikes on Iran, emphasizing that they risk generating instability in the Middle East and affecting the British economy. Khan described the military action as an "unwise war," lacking a clear strategy for the post-conflict period, and accused the U.S. administration of triggering a conflict that is already causing suffering and casualties. He warned that a prolonged war could lead to increases in mortgage rates and energy prices, severely impacting households in the UK. The mayor supported British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's decision not to allow the use of British bases for offensive attacks, stating that the UK should focus on peace and stability in the region. The tense relationship between Khan and Trump has been marked by divergences on immigration and security issues, and Trump's recent criticisms of the British government have amplified the conflict between the two leaders.
