William Hague to announce closer ties with Iran - FT.com:



"Britain will take a step towards establishing full diplomatic relations with Iran, William Hague will announce on Tuesday, as the two countries are pushed together by the crisis in Iraq.



The foreign secretary told MPs on Monday that he was ready to announce the next stage in the long process of normalising relations between the two states after they were cut off following a 2011 attack on the British embassy in Tehran.



Mr Hague said: “We do have, over many decades including, now, important common interests with Iran. That includes stability in Iraq and in Afghanistan.”
