PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe (18 November 2021)

The Foreign Secretary discussed Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, Morad Tahbaz and Anoosheh Ashoori's cases with Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian on 8 November. The Foreign Secretary has also taken every opportunity to discuss the situation with other key players in the region and more widely and will continue to do so. I raised all our cases with my Iranian counterpart Deputy Foreign Minister, Bagheri Kani when he visited the FCDO on 11 November. Our Ambassador in Tehran continues to regularly raise Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe, Morad Tahbaz and Anoosheh Ashoori with the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Ministers hold regular meetings with officials to direct activity across the FCDO to secure her release and that of other detained British nationals.
