Starmer Heads to Gulf to Shore Up 'Fragile' US-Iran Ceasefire
Prime Minister Keir Starmer is on a Gulf diplomatic tour, meeting leaders in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar to reinforce the fragile US-Iran ceasefire and push for the unconditional reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. Starmer warned there is 'a lot of work to do' to make the truce permanent, as Israel's continued campaign in Lebanon threatens to derail the agreement. High-stakes US-Iran peace talks began in Islamabad on Friday.
