Proceeding contribution from Lord Coaker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 July 2026. It occurred during Private notice question on Strait of Hormuz: Merchant Shipping.
Strait of Hormuz: Merchant Shipping
We have always said that any support that we have given to the Americans has been for defensive purposes. As the noble and learned Baroness will know, we have continually called for a ceasefire, as it initially was, the maintenance of the memorandum of understanding and the de-escalation of activity by any nation. We stand by that.
