European powers—Britain, France, and Germany—are urgently resuming face-to-face nuclear talks with Iran in Istanbul, aiming to prevent the reimposition of sweeping UN sanctions that could collapse the 2015 nuclear deal.
The talks come as the deadline for triggering the 'snapback' mechanism looms, with Europe offering a possible extension if Iran agrees to curb its nuclear activities. Iran, meanwhile, is seeking support from Russia and China to resist Western pressure and has threatened to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty if sanctions return. Expectations for a breakthrough are low, but both sides are under intense pressure to avoid escalating the standoff.
The outcome could determine the future of Iran's nuclear program and regional security.
