Iran: Israel
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether representatives from the US government communicated to the UK Government that there were plans by the Government of Israel to attack Iran.
Answered by Mr Hamish Falconer
The UK did not participate in any element of Israel's strikes on Iran. We are working closely with our allies including the US to press for diplomacy and de-escalation, and urging all parties to show restraint. The Foreign Secretary has been engaging with Secretary of State Rubio on a regular basis, to discuss the need for Iran to return to the negotiating table as soon as possible and to make progress on a lasting settlement.
