Iran is set to resume nuclear negotiations with Britain, France, and Germany in Istanbul, as European powers warn they will reimpose tough UN sanctions if no progress is made by the end of August.
The talks come after the collapse of the 2015 nuclear deal, with both sides blaming each other for the breakdown. European countries are leveraging the threat of the 'snapback' mechanism to pressure Iran into compliance, while Iran warns of retaliation and further escalation if sanctions return. The diplomatic standoff is further complicated by Iran's shifting alliances with Russia and China, and concerns over regional security.
The outcome of these talks could determine whether Iran faces renewed international isolation or a path back to diplomacy.
