Tehran, September 27 (Xinhua) — Iran has recalled its ambassadors from three European countries – France, Britain, and Germany, known as the E3 – after they triggered the mechanism to restore international sanctions against Tehran. The Iranian Foreign Ministry announced this on Saturday.

In a statement, the agency called the E3's decision to launch the snapback mechanism "irresponsible" and clarified that the ambassadors had been summoned to Tehran for consultations.

Last month, the E3 countries formally activated a mechanism that would reimpose UN sanctions within 30 days if Iran is found to be in violation of the 2015 nuclear deal.

On September 19, the UN Security Council failed to adopt a resolution extending sanctions relief for Iran under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). On September 26, a follow-up resolution, which would have extended both the JCPOA itself and Resolution 2231 approving the agreement for six months, also failed to pass. This means that the sanctions lifted under the deal will be reimposed starting Saturday evening.
