Sir Keir Starmer

Labour — Holborn and St Pancras

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 June 2025

Debate

G7 and NATO Summits

Contribution

We have long argued that Iran should not be capable of having a nuclear weapon, and what happened on Saturday night was a big step to alleviating that threat. That was the subject of many comments at the NATO summit, along with the congratulations for the ceasefire that has now been brokered and the emphasis we now need on getting Iran around the negotiating table, because if it is to be irreversible and verifiable, it is important that it is done through negotiation. That is what we are focused on.
