European powers—Britain, France, and Germany—have issued an ultimatum to Iran: make concrete progress on its nuclear program by the end of August or face the reimposition of tough United Nations sanctions that were previously lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal.
In response, Iran has warned it may retaliate by withdrawing from key international nuclear treaties and escalating its uranium enrichment. The renewed diplomatic push includes upcoming talks in Istanbul, with Iran also seeking support from Russia and China to counter Western pressure. Tensions are high as both sides blame each other for the collapse of the original agreement, and the threat of a 'snapback' of sanctions looms large.
The outcome of these negotiations could have significant implications for regional and global security.
