Iran and E3 Agree in Principle to Resume Nuclear Talks
Preliminary understanding reached, but time and venue still under discussion
Iran, PUREWILAYAH.COM - Iran and the European troika—comprising the United Kingdom, France, and Germany—have reached a preliminary agreement to resume stalled nuclear negotiations, according to an informed source cited by Tasnim News Agency.
The discussions are part of broader efforts to revive diplomacy over Iran’s nuclear program and the potential lifting of international sanctions.
The upcoming negotiations are expected to be held at the deputy foreign minister level, involving senior diplomats from both sides. While the understanding to restart talks has been reached, the exact time and location of the next round remain undecided.
“The hosting country for the next round of talks has not yet been determined,” the source stated.
Core Issues on the Table: Commitments and Sanctions
The renewed talks are likely to center around two key themes:
Iran’s nuclear commitments under international agreements,
And the possibility of easing or lifting sanctions that have been reimposed or expanded in recent years.
This diplomatic momentum follows months of deadlock and limited communication between Tehran and European capitals.
A Step Toward De-escalation?
While the revival of talks is only at the early stage, the move is being cautiously welcomed as a potential turning point in Iran–E3 relations.
The broader geopolitical context—including U.S. policies, regional tensions, and domestic political dynamics—will likely influence the outcome of any forthcoming negotiations. (PW)
