Iran, Araghchi: ‘Starmer is putting the lives of British citizens at risk’

Milan, 20 March (LaPresse) – “The vast majority of British citizens do not want to be involved in the war that Israel and the United States have decided to wage against Iran. By ignoring his own people, Starmer is putting the lives of British citizens at risk by allowing UK bases to be used for an attack on Iran. Iran will exercise its right to self-defence.” This is what Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi wrote in a post on social media platform X, after the London government gave the US the go-ahead to use its military bases to protect the Strait of Hormuz.
