UK FM in Iran to push for Briton's release
Afp, Tehran
Britain's foreign minister arrived in Iran yesterday to press for the release of British-Iranian woman Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe who was arrested in 2016 in Tehran for her alleged links to mass protests in 2009. Boris Johnson's visit was the first by a top British diplomat since 2015 and he was also due to discuss that year's landmark nuclear accord between Iran and world powers, whose future has been thrown into doubt by US President Donald Trump.
