"Seyyed Abbas Araghchi stated that the UK's choice to allow the US to use British bases is viewed as 'participation in aggression' and demanded an end to cooperation with the US."
"The UK clarified that it did not participate in the initial strikes against Iran and authorized the US to use its bases for a specific defensive purpose in response to Iranian aggression."
"Araghchi emphasized that these actions will be recorded in the history of relations between the two countries and asserted Iran's right to defend its sovereignty."
Iran's foreign minister criticized the UK's decision to allow US usage of British bases, labeling it as participation in aggression. He urged the UK to stop cooperating with the US and condemned its negative stance. The UK permitted US bases for defensive actions against Iranian missile strikes but clarified it did not participate in initial attacks. The UK Prime Minister's spokesman emphasized the limited purpose of this authorization. Iran reserved its right to defend its sovereignty and independence, responding to UK condemnation of its retaliatory actions.
