ISTANBUL, July 25 (Xinhua) — Diplomats from Iran and the EU3 (France, Britain and Germany) have agreed to continue consultations following talks in Istanbul on Friday on lifting sanctions and the nuclear issue, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Legal and International Affairs Kazem Gharibabadi said.
The closed-door meeting took place at the Iranian consulate in Istanbul, with the Iranian delegation led by K. Gharibabadi and Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Majid Takht-Ravanchi.
At the end of the meeting, which lasted about four hours, K. Gharibabadi said on the X social network that Iran and the EU3 countries had held “serious, frank and detailed” discussions on the nuclear issue and the lifting of sanctions.
He added that the Iranian side expressed sharp criticism of the position of European countries regarding the recent conflict between Iran and Israel and reaffirmed its “principled position”, including regarding the snapback mechanism.
The snapback mechanism is a provision in the 2015 nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, that allows other parties to the agreement to reimpose all international sanctions if Iran fails to meet its obligations.
The talks come amid efforts to revive diplomacy on the Iranian nuclear issue after U.S.-Iran talks and broader discussions involving European countries were suspended following Israel's June 13 strike on Iran. –0–
