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 trigger the UN 'snapback' mechanism to reimpose tough international sanctions. The renewed talks, set to take place in Istanbul, mark the first major diplomatic engagement since the collapse of the 2015 nuclear deal and recent escalations in the region. Iran has responded with threats of retaliation and warned that restoring sanctions would further complicate the nuclear standoff and regional security. The E3's move is seen as a last-ditch effort to prevent Iran from advancing its nuclear capabilities, while Iran blames Europe for failing to uphold previous commitments. The outcome of these talks could determine whether diplomacy prevails or a new phase of confrontation begins.
