Iran is set to resume nuclear negotiations with Britain, France, and Germany in Istanbul amid escalating tensions and the looming threat of renewed UN sanctions.
The European powers have given Iran an August deadline to make concrete progress on its nuclear program or face the reimposition of tough sanctions lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal. Iran, meanwhile, blames the Europeans for the collapse of the original agreement and warns of severe consequences if sanctions are restored, including potential regional instability. The talks mark a critical diplomatic effort to avoid further escalation, but both sides remain entrenched in their positions.
The outcome could determine the future of Iran's nuclear ambitions and broader Middle East security.
