Carl Bildt, former Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of Sweden, shares his perspective:

What does General Suleimani's death mean for Europe?

Well, great concern for the consequences for the region. Primarily, apart from the stability of Iraq, what's going to happen there? It's a very fragile place. And if that is made into a battleground between the US and Iran, it's going to be very, very negative for the country and for the region. But then, of course, the fear of a further escalation also between the US and Iran. Almost unavoidable by now.
