<p>The UK, along with France and Germany (the E3), have expressed their full solidarity
with all impacted by COVID-19 in Iran. We are working with the international community
to ensure that Iran receives the humanitarian support it needs: the E3 have provided
a EUR 5 million package of financial and material assistance to Iran via the World
Health Organisation and UN bodies to help with the response. We also continue to engage
the US on a range of policy matters relating to Iran, including how the international
community can best support the Iranian Government's response to the COVID-19 crisis
in Iran. We welcome the new US Treasury factsheet issued on 16th April summarising
the humanitarian exemptions to sanctions against Iran and offering additional guidance
for individuals and governments.</p>
