European powers—Britain, France, and Germany—have warned Iran that they will reimpose tough United Nations sanctions by the end of August unless there is concrete progress on reviving the nuclear deal.
Talks are set to resume in Istanbul, with the focus on de-escalation and avoiding further deterioration rather than achieving a breakthrough. Iran has responded with threats to abandon nuclear restrictions and warned of regional instability if sanctions are restored. The so-called 'snapback' mechanism would reinstate previously suspended UN Security Council resolutions, significantly increasing pressure on Tehran.
The diplomatic standoff comes amid shifting alliances and heightened tensions, with Iran blaming Europe for the collapse of the 2015 nuclear agreement.
