Theresa May urges Donald Trump to keep Iran nuclear deal
Prime Minister Theresa May has urged the US to recertify the nuclear deal with Iran because it is "vitally important for regional security".
In a phone call with President Trump, Mrs May stressed the importance of the deal being "carefully monitored and properly enforced".
The US President had been expected to scrap the agreement, as he said it did not serve US security interests.
Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson called the deal "an historic achievement".
He is to meet Iranian Vice President Dr Ali Akhbar Salehi in London on Wednesday.
Speaking ahead of the meeting, Mr Johnson said: "We have made no bones about our deep concern at Iran's destabilising regional activity... but I remain steadfast in my view that the nuclear deal was an historic achievement that has undoubtedly made the world a safer place."
