John Swinney would ‘consider’ US military plane ban | BBC News

From BBC News.

Scotland First Minister John Swinney has said he would consider banning US military aircraft from using state-owned Prestwick Airport if it was confirmed they were involved in strikes in the Middle East.

Swinney has previously said he was "concerned" by the US and Israeli action against Iran and did not believe it conformed with an "international rules-based system".

Talking to the BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg as part of the show’s party leader interviews, he said he was seeking clarity from the UK government about the role of US planes using the airport.
