17:15Now PlayingHenry Riley is joined by journalist David Patrikarakos, who is 'starting to get worried' about the US strategy in Iran.
This comes after the Foreign Secretary hit back at Donald Trump after he claimed the UK was “not needed” in the Middle East, because the US has “already won.”
Ramping up his war of words with Sir Keir Starmer on Saturday night, Trump said: "We don't need people that join wars after we've already won.”
This marks the latest of a series of attacks by Trump after Sir Keir chose not to join in on the US and Israel’s initial strikes on Iran.
Sir Keir acknowledged that Mr Trump had 'expressed his disagreement', but insisted it was in Britain's national interest to abide strictly by international law.
He told MPs repeatedly that any military action had to have a 'lawful basis' and a 'viable thought-through plan' – and suggested the US had neither.
