Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the (1) possibility, and (2) impact, of the government of the United States granting Russia immunity from any economic sanctions relating to Iran as part of agreement with the government of Iran on a revised Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action; and what discussions they have held with the government of the United States on this matter.
The sanctions in place on Russia due to their unprovoked invasion of Ukraine are entirely separate to the Iran nuclear deal. We reject attempts to exploit JCPoA negotiations to obtain assurances that are separate to the JCPoA. We have made this clear in regular E3 (France, Germany and the United Kingdom)+US lead negotiator meetings.
