answer text <p>We regularly engage with the US on Iran policy at a variety of levels, including through a visit to Washington by Our Ambassador to Iran last month.</p><p>We do not routinely comment on whether an organisation is or is not under consideration for proscription.

We have long expressed our deep concerns about the IRGC’s destabilising activity both within and outside Iran, including its illicit economic activity and its role in Iran’s ballistic missile development and support to non-state groups around the region.</p> more like this
