Description
Prime Minister Keir Starmer says the UK is working with allies on a plan to keep the Strait of Hormuz open amid rising tensions with Iran.
Speaking in Downing Street, Starmer confirmed discussions with European partners and Canada’s Mark Carney about possible measures to protect the key shipping route. However, he stressed that the UK would not be drawn into Donald Trump’s “wider war” with Iran.
The prime minister also stopped short of committing to sending British warships to the strait, despite calls from the US, warning that such a move could further escalate the crisis.
