Overview

• Britain, France and Germany triggered the UN snapback in late August, starting a 30‑day process that concludes Saturday 8 p.m. ET (0000 GMT Sunday).
• The Russia–China draft for a six-month delay failed 4–9 with two abstentions, confirming that sanctions will be reimposed.
• Restored measures include a full arms embargo, bans on enrichment and missile‑related activities, and global asset freezes and travel bans.
• Iran warned it will void its recent IAEA inspection arrangement if sanctions return, though IAEA inspectors are currently in the country at a second undamaged site.
• European officials say Tehran’s limited offer of restricted site access and a 45‑day plan for roughly 400 kg of highly enriched uranium fell short of demands for full access and transparency.
