Iran-US-Israel War Highlights: Trump claims Iran agrees to never develop nuclear weapons

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer held talks with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Tuesday evening to discuss the ongoing conflict in West Asia, according to a Downing Street spokesperson.

During the conversation, Starmer reaffirmed the UK’s support for Saudi Arabia amid the US-Israeli war involving Iran, and briefed the crown prince on the deployment of additional British defensive military assets.

Condemning Tehran’s actions, Starmer said Iran’s continued attacks, including those targeting critical national infrastructure, were “appalling.”

He also noted that, following a UK-led joint statement last week, London is now working with international partners on a viable plan to ensure the uninterrupted flow of goods through key maritime routes.
