Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what recent assessment her Department has made of the level of threats against Iranian dissidents and activists in the UK as a result of the forthcoming trial against an Iranian diplomat in Belgium on terrorism charges relating to alleged plots to bomb a conference of Iranian dissidents in 2018.

The UK takes a zero-tolerance approach to violence and threats. We will continue to work closely with our international allies to protect the UK and our interests from any Iran-based threats.
