In return for the funds and operational feedback it is receiving in this deal, Iran will be able to expand its defence-industrial base and further proliferate weapons throughout the Middle East. The Ministry of Defence is working with a range of partners to identify and expose this relationship and hold both Iran and Russia to account. Meanwhile, we continue to assess the implications of this relationship on regional and global security and that of the safety of our Armed Forces.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Plymouth Sutton and Devonport answering member printed Luke Pollard question first answered 06/09/2024 09:41:30 answering member 4682 label Biography information for Luke Pollard
