Long, fraught timeline of Iran nuclear tensions
Iran faces threats of renewed United Nations sanctions unless it resolves nuclear compliance issues by Aug. 31, with uranium enrichment nearing weapons-grade levels, the International Atomic Energy Agency says.
- Later this month, Iran will hold a phone call with France, Germany and the United Kingdom as the three European powers set an Aug. 31 deadline for a `satisfactory solution` or face reimposed U.N. sanctions.
- Iran has escalated nuclear activity by enriching uranium to 60% purity, suspending cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency and announcing activation of a third nuclear enrichment facility.
- European ministers Jean-Noel Barrot, David Lammy, Johann Wadephul and Kaja Kallas held a joint call with Iran on Friday to discuss nuclear compliance, pressing for substantive engagement to avoid snapback sanctions.
- The U.S. has tightened sanctions targeting oil exports and networks tied to Tehran, sanctioning Antonios Margaritis and thirteen other firms to limit Iran's revenue for weapons and proxy support.
- Combined military and diplomatic moves position the nuclear standoff as a regional security risk, with the June 9, 2025 Iran-Israel war and Nov. 19, 2023 Galaxy Leader seizure intensifying threats to stability.
