UK’s Starmer urges Middle East de-escalation in calls with leaders of Jordan and Oman

A Downing Street spokesperson said Starmer “agreed on the grave threat posed by Iran’s nuclear programme and reiterated calls for them to return to the negotiating table” in a call with Sultan of Oman Haitham bin Tarik al Said.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said that Iran should return to the negotiating table and that an escalation of the situation in the Middle East is in no-one’s interests in calls with the leaders of Jordan and Oman, his office said on Sunday.
