Right
Hi,
"Yesterday, there was bemusement among senior MoD officials that Mr Werritty had been at a meeting between Mr Fox, right, and the then forthcoming British ambassador to Israel, believed to have been Matthew Gould, the first Jewish UK envoy to the country." [From The Independent.]
Could you explain how to interpret the adverb "right" (I think it's an adverb in the context) in this sentece?
Thank you.

Thank you, Clive, for your useful reply. Thre are two pictures of Mr Fox associated with the article, indeed. But the problem is that on both pictures he is placed in the centre. It may after all refer to a picture as one of them is placed at the right top corner of the page.
