Iran: Sanctions
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will consider the merits of introducing unilateral economic sanctions against Iran.
- Answer

We are fully committed to using engagement and targeted pressure to resolve the Iranian nuclear issue, and have supported UN and EU sanctions as part of this approach.
