Iran and European Powers to Hold Nuclear Talks in Geneva on January 13

The discussions follow heightened tensions over Iran's uranium enrichment and concerns about potential nuclear weapons development.

  • The UK, France, and Germany will meet with Iran in Geneva to discuss its nuclear program, marking the second round of talks since November 2024.
  • Iran has significantly increased its uranium enrichment to 60% purity, nearing weapons-grade levels, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
  • European powers have accused Iran of amassing highly enriched uranium without credible civilian justification and undermining the 2015 nuclear deal.
  • Tehran insists its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, while escalating its installation of advanced centrifuges following criticism from the UN nuclear watchdog.
  • The talks come amid speculation about potential Israeli or U.S. action against Iran’s nuclear sites, with Donald Trump set to return to the White House the following week.
