Davey: International leadership is needed now

13 Jun 2025

Following Israel's strikes in Iran overnight, Liberal Democrat Leader Ed Davey said:

"People across the UK and the world will be fearing the break-out of widespread regional conflict in the Middle East, following Israel’s strikes overnight.

"The UK must work with allies to contain Iran’s nuclear ambitions through diplomacy, not war.

"The UK Government should urge both Israel and Iran not to do anything that will escalate the situation any further.

"International leadership is needed now."

ENDS
