Secretary of State Marco Rubio has signaled that the Trump administration's frustration over Iran policy is not a passing grievance but a condition of continued American commitment to the alliance. In the long arc of transatlantic partnership, this moment asks whether alliances built on mutual obligation can survive the logic of conditional loyalty.
