UK, France, Germany Trigger Snapback Sanctions on Iran Over Nuclear Programme

The United Kingdom, France, and Germany have triggered a ‘snapback’ mechanism to reimpose all United Nations sanctions on Iran after determining that the regime has violated the provisions of the 2015 nuclear deal. This move comes after the US withdrew from the agreement in 2018. By activating the snapback mechanism, the UK, France, and Germany aim to hold Iran accountable for its actions and prevent further nuclear proliferation. The three European countries expressed their concern over Iran’s failure to comply with the terms of the deal.
