Countdown to Diplomacy: Deadline for Iran Nuclear Deal
IRAN, JUL 15 – US and European foreign ministers set an end-of-August deadline for Iran to accept a nuclear deal or face reimposition of UN sanctions via the snapback mechanism, officials said.
- According to Fox News, Iran has until the end of August to agree to a nuclear deal, at the de facto deadline set by Rubio and European foreign ministers.
- Since June, US and Israeli strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites increased military pressure, as the Trump administration pressed Tehran to roll back its nuclear program.
- Within 30 days, the mechanism activates, sources said, supporting Europe’s goal to conclude before Russia’s UN Security Council presidency in October.
- On Monday, Iran warned it would strike back if the UN Security Council enforces sanctions, while Esmaeil Baghaei said the snapback threat lacks legal basis.
- According to Iranian state media, Tehran could escalate by enriching uranium to weapons-grade levels if snapback is activated, Iranian state media reported.
