Britain, France, and Germany (the E3) have warned Iran that unless it makes concrete progress on its nuclear program by the end of August, they will reimpose tough United Nations sanctions that were lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal.
Talks are set to resume in Istanbul, with both sides aiming to avoid escalation but little expectation of a breakthrough. Iran has threatened to retaliate and potentially abandon nuclear restrictions if sanctions return, blaming Europe for the collapse of the original agreement. The looming 'snapback' deadline has heightened diplomatic tensions and could further isolate Iran internationally.
The outcome of these negotiations may determine the future of Iran's nuclear ambitions and regional security.
