On March 2nd, UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has defended his choice to keep Britain out of the recent strikes on Iran, led by the United States and Israel. He made those comments during an update to members of parliament in the House of Commons about the ongoing tensions in the Middle East. Starmer confirmed that the UK played no role in the first wave of attacks that happened on Saturday. He mentioned facing pushback from U.S. President Donald Trump over the decision to stay on the sidelines. Starmer explained that his job is to put Britain's national interest first, and he has no regrets about that call as the situation continues to unfold. Unfold. Unfold. Unfold. Unfold. Unfold. Unfold.
