00:00All of the leaders that I met were crystal clear that freedom of navigation is vital
00:07and must be restored. No conditions, no tolls and no tolerance of Iran holding the world's
00:15economy to ransom. Because, Mr Speaker, the impact of Iran's behaviour in the strait
00:22is causing untold economic damage. It's visible on every petrol forecourt in the country.
00:29My guide from the start of this conflict has always been our national interest. That's
00:38why we stayed out of the war and why we continue to stay out of the war. And that is
00:44why we
00:45are working now to restore freedom of navigation in the Middle East, because that is squarely
00:50in our national interest.
