Jetstreams are found between airmasses of different temperatures, one side of the jet being warmer than the other. Rule to remember is that in the northern hemisphere, with your back to the jetstream the cold air is on your left (opposite in SH). Applying this theory to the question you will see that the jetstream must be coming from the left, as all jetstreams found in Europe are westerly.

Hope this helps.
