Iran, E3 Nations Resume Nuclear Talks in Istanbul Amid Sanctions Threats

News summary

Diplomats from Iran and the European E3 group—Britain, France, and Germany—have resumed nuclear talks in Istanbul, marking the first face-to-face negotiations since the June strikes by the US and Israel on Iranian nuclear sites. The discussions aim to revive the stalled Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), focusing on Iran's nuclear commitments and potential sanctions relief, with the snapback mechanism for reimposing sanctions remaining a key point of contention. Iran insists on its right to uranium enrichment and demands that sanctions be lifted while expressing deep mistrust toward the United States, calling for genuine efforts to rebuild trust before further engagement. European diplomats have warned that sanctions will be reinstated by the end of August if no progress is made, but all sides have expressed a willingness to continue diplomatic engagement despite heightened regional tensions. Iranian officials emphasize that talks should not serve as a platform for hidden agendas such as military action, while maintaining readiness for any scenario. The ongoing negotiations reflect a complex diplomatic effort to unstick the nuclear deadlock amid geopolitical pressures and recent escalations.
