LONDON– UK Business Secretary Sajid Javid has postponed a major trade visit to Iran to focus on the future of Britain’s steel industry, a spokesman from the business department said on Tuesday, as the government tries to save thousands of steelworkers’ jobs.
“Given the Business Secretary’s focus on the steel industry, he has decided to postpone his trip to Iran,” the spokesman said.
He had planned to travel to Tehran this month on what would have been the biggest British trade delegation to Iran since the lifting of international sanctions in January.
