Iran is set to hold urgent nuclear talks with Britain, France, and Germany (the E3) in Istanbul amid escalating tensions over its nuclear program.
European powers have warned they may trigger the UN 'snapback' mechanism, reimposing international sanctions if no progress is made by the end of August. In response, Iran has threatened to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and to end regional security cooperation if sanctions return. Iran is also seeking support from Russia and China to counter Western pressure.
The outcome of these talks could determine the future of the 2015 nuclear deal and regional stability.
