Iran will meet next week with Britain, France and Germany for talks on its nuclear programme, the parties said, as the European powers warned Tehran to engage swiftly to avoid snapback sanctions. The Islamic republic suspended cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency in July in the wake of its 12-day war with Israel, citing the UN nuclear watchdog’s failure to condemn Israeli and US strikes on its nuclear facilities. The European trio, parties to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, have threatened to trigger a “snapback mechanism” by the end of August.
