Iran

Lord Craig of Radley Excerpts

Thursday 15th January 2026 Lords Chamber

[Lord Craig of Radley (CB)]

My Lords, President Trump has made a number of possible suggestions about what he might or might not do in dealing with Iran. Have those been shared with our Government, and have our Government had any opportunity to propose alternatives or agree with what the President presently has in mind?

[Baroness Chapman of Darlington (Lab)]

Noble Lords will know that we were not involved in the measures that the United States took a few months ago. There are constant conversations between the United Kingdom and US counterparts on this and many other issues. I do not think it is right for me to answer directly the question that the noble and gallant Lord puts, other than to assure him that communication is good and constant, and we raise all the issues that noble Lords would expect us to raise.
