Iran and European Powers Continue Talks on Nuclear Program in Geneva

The discussions focus on lifting sanctions and addressing nuclear concerns as the 2015 deal approaches its expiration.

Iran and the E3 nations—Germany, France, and the UK—held two days of talks in Geneva, described as 'serious, frank, and constructive' by both sides.
The discussions aim to explore pathways for reviving the 2015 nuclear deal, which provided sanctions relief in exchange for limits on Iran's nuclear activities.
European leaders expressed growing alarm over Iran's uranium enrichment, now at 60% purity, nearing weapons-grade levels, and called for diplomatic solutions.
French President Emmanuel Macron warned that Iran's nuclear advancements are approaching a 'breaking point,' urging consideration of reinstating UN sanctions if progress stalls.
The talks come just days before Donald Trump returns to the U.S. presidency, raising concerns about a potential return to his 'maximum pressure' policy on Iran.
