I'm Janet Jalil and at 16 hours GMT on Friday the 30th of January, these are our main stories. Iran says it's ready for talks with the US, but only on equal terms, after Donald Trump's threats of military action. China lists sanctions on a group of British parliamentarians during a visit by the UK prime minister, Keir Starmer.

Yksi hyökkäyksistä on,
