European powers—France, Germany, and the UK—have warned Iran that they will reimpose tough United Nations sanctions by the end of August if no concrete progress is made on reviving the nuclear deal.
The so-called 'snapback' mechanism would restore sanctions lifted under the 2015 agreement, escalating tensions and risking further regional instability. Iran has responded with threats of retaliation and warned that renewed sanctions would complicate the nuclear standoff. Talks are set to resume in Istanbul, with both sides aiming to avoid escalation but little hope for a breakthrough.
The diplomatic standoff comes amid shifting alliances, with Iran also consulting Russia and China, and growing pressure from the US and its allies.
