Europe Powers Urge Iran to Keep up Diplomacy Despite Israeli Strikes
- On June 20 in Geneva, European foreign ministers from France, Britain, Germany, and the EU met Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi for a three-hour discussion on stalled nuclear diplomacy.
- The talks followed Israel's launch the previous week of Operation Rising Lion targeting Iran's nuclear sites, which led Iran to reject new negotiations until Israeli strikes cease.
- European officials encouraged Tehran to hold direct discussions with Washington despite ongoing conditions, while Araqchi condemned Israel for undermining diplomatic efforts during a prior address at the UN in Geneva.
- British Foreign Secretary David Lammy said, “This is a perilous moment,” and German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul noted Iran is fundamentally ready to continue talks.
- The meeting ended without breakthroughs, underscoring a small window for diplomacy as European ministers await US decisions on potential military involvement.
