John Healy, the UK Treasury Secretary, announced that the government of this country will continue to exert economic pressure on the Islamic Republic of Iran alongside the United States and other partners, and will take action to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and counter Iran's "dangerous activities."

Healy stated in a statement on August 25, 2026, that the UK government has imposed over 240 sanctions against Iran since taking office; sanctions that, according to him, have been implemented in response to actions that threaten the security of the people and the UK.

The UK Treasury Secretary added that London is determined to prevent the Islamic Republic from using the global economy or the UK financial system to advance its nuclear program and destabilizing activities.

He also supported the efforts of the United States to achieve a diplomatic solution and stated that the UK welcomes increased pressure on the Islamic Republic, including through the US's "economic exclusion" operations.

Healy emphasized that the UK will continue to work with its partners to protect its interests and will take necessary actions to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and counter what has been described as Iran's dangerous activities in the region.

The UK Treasury Secretary urged the Islamic Republic to stop its destabilizing activities in the region, including in the Strait of Hormuz, and to engage in diplomatic talks.
