The trio, known as the #E3, met #Iran on Tuesday to try to revive diplomacy over the #nuclear program before they lose the ability in mid-October to restore #sanctions on Tehran that were lifted under a 2015 nuclear accord with #world #powers.
Three European diplomats & a Western diplomat said Tuesday's talks did not yield sufficiently tangible commitments from Iran, although they believed there was scope for further diplomacy in the coming weeks.
They said the #E3 had decided to start triggering the so-called #snapback of #UN #sanctions, possibly as early as Thursday, over accusations that #Iran has violated the 2015 deal with world powers that aimed to prevent Tehran from developing a #NuclearWeapon.
…UN #nuclear inspectors have returned to Iran for the first time since it suspended cooperation with them in the wake of #Israel & the #US' attacks on its nuclear sites in June, Iranian state media reported on Wednesday.
