Great to see both Anoosheh and Nazanin in such good spirits. An emotional moment for both families as they welcome them home.
506
Delighted that Nazanin and Anoosheh have landed safely in the UK and are reunited with their families and loved ones. Welcome home.
507
The release of Nazanin, Anoosheh and Morad is the result of the efforts and dedication of many people both in the FCDO and across government.
I pay tribute to my predecessors and the PM, who have all worked hard to resolve this issue, and to our brilliant diplomats and officials

I can confirm Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Anoosheh Ashoori will return to the UK today, and Morad Tahbaz has been released from prison on furlough. They will be reunited with their families later today.
We will continue to work to secure Morad's departure from Iran.

The UK is leading the way with our historic round of sanctions - further isolating Putin’s enablers for their illegal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.

Another #UKAid flight carrying medical supplies for Ukraine has taken off today – our ninth so far. 40 pallets from @NHSScotland, including resuscitators and ventilators on their way to people in need.

Sanctions Update: After today we will have designated over 1,000 individuals and entities since Russia’s invasion.
This includes over 370 new sanctions announced today - possible thanks to the new Economic Crime Act.
Putin must fail in Ukraine

Welcome news from @yairlapid that Israel will support sanctions against Russia.🇮🇱

UK stands by Australia and the Netherlands in calling on the Russian government to accept responsibility for the tragedy of MH17.
We must deliver justice for the families of the victims. This is just another example of the Kremlin’s barbaric actions against innocent civilians.

Our family of Commonwealth nations are united in a commitment to freedom, democracy and peace.
Today we celebrate #CommonwealthDay, and together we will build a better, more secure future.

522
The invasion of Ukraine is a paradigm shift on a level not seen since 9/11. The West has woken up and must ensure the global security architecture is fit for this new era.

This is the latest in a pattern of lies and disinformation by the Russian state.
The Kremlin is waging a disinformation campaign to attempt to justify the unjustifiable. The UK and our partners will continue to call out these lies. Nobody is fooled. twitter.com/UKUN_NewYork/s…
524
Our unbreakable alliance with the United States is at the heart of European security 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Together we are tightening the vice on Putin's regime and doing all we can to support the people of Ukraine.
525
Today I have sanctioned 386 members of Russia's State Duma for supporting Putin’s barbaric invasion of Ukraine.
We mean what we say. With our allies and partners, we will cripple the Russian economy and cut off Putin’s war machine. gov.uk/government/new…
