UK, France, Germany Plan Joint Nuclear Talks with Iran and US

The leaders of the United Kingdom, France, and Germany have revealed plans to initiate negotiations with both Iran and the United States.

The leaders of the three European countries-French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer-stated that they intend to hold talks with Tehran and Washington to reach an agreement ensuring that Iran will not possess nuclear weapons, The Caspian Post reports, citing Iranian media.

The three European leaders once again defended their decision to activate the snapback mechanism against Iran, reiterating their earlier claims. Without addressing their own non-compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal (JCPOA), they asserted that Iran’s nuclear program poses a serious threat to global peace and security.

They also called on all United Nations member states to adhere to the mechanism for reinstating sanctions against Iran.

These remarks come despite the fact that Iranian officials have repeatedly emphasized that Tehran has never sought nuclear weapons and that such arms have no place in the country’s defense doctrine.
