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 'snapback' mechanism would restore sanctions lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal, which has been in jeopardy since the US withdrawal and subsequent Iranian breaches. Iran has warned that reimposing sanctions would complicate negotiations and could prompt it to abandon nuclear limits or escalate regional tensions. European diplomats insist that Iran must make concrete commitments to curb its nuclear program or face renewed international isolation.
The upcoming talks in Istanbul represent a last-ditch effort to salvage the agreement and avoid a major diplomatic crisis.
