Iran is set to resume nuclear talks with the UK, France, and Germany amid mounting threats from European powers to reimpose tough UN sanctions if no progress is made by the end of August.
The so-called E3 countries have warned that unless Iran agrees to curb its nuclear program and return to compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal, they will trigger the 'snapback' mechanism, restoring sanctions that were previously lifted. Iran has responded with warnings of regional instability and potential escalation if sanctions are reinstated, blaming Europe for the collapse of the original agreement. The upcoming talks in Istanbul mark the first high-level negotiations since recent tensions and military escalations in the region.
The outcome of these talks could determine whether diplomacy prevails or a new phase of confrontation begins.
