Iran, Britain, France and Germany have agreed to hold talks on Tehran’s nuclear program, Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency reports, following warnings by the three European countries that failure to resume negotiations would lead to international sanctions being reimposed on Iran.
“The principle of talks has been agreed upon, but consultations are continuing on the time and place of the talks. The country in which the talks could be held next week has not been finalized,” Tasnim reports, quoting a source informed with the matter.
The US, France, Germany and the UK reportedly agreed last week to set the end of August as the de facto deadline for reaching a nuclear deal with Iran.
If no deal is reached by that deadline, the three European powers plan to trigger the “snapback” mechanism that automatically reimposes all UN Security Council sanctions that were lifted under the 2015 Iran deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, an Axios report said.
