# Foreign secretary Ed Miliband has warned Iran Britain will not tolerate intimidation, threats, or hostile activity on UK soil from groups linked to the country. He met with his Iranian counterpart, Abbas Araghchi, on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York yesterday. Over a week ago, British intelligence services uncovered an Iranian spyware campaign stealing sensitive data from targets around the world. Miliband urged Iran to choose de-escalation and diplomacy instead of prolonging the war with the US and Israel.
