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.
High-stakes talks are set to resume in Istanbul, with both sides aiming to avoid further escalation but little expectation of a breakthrough. Iran has threatened to retaliate and possibly abandon nuclear restrictions if sanctions are restored, blaming European powers for the collapse of the original agreement. The looming 'snapback' deadline has intensified diplomatic maneuvering, with regional security and Iran's international isolation hanging in the balance.
The outcome of these negotiations could determine the future of Iran's nuclear ambitions and broader Middle East stability.
