Get ready for the next big twist in the global nuclear saga! On Thursday, Britain, France and Germany fired the starting gun on a 30-day snapback to reimpose UN sanctions on Iran over its disputed nuclear program. 🚀
Tehran wasted no time hitting back. Senior official Abbas Araqchi slammed the move as unjustified, illegal and lacking any legal basis, and vowed that Iran won’t bow to pressure. It’s like the final season of a hit show, and the plot keeps thickening! 🎬👊
Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi raised the stakes even higher, warning that Iran could end its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency if the snapback goes ahead. No more inspections? The nuclear drama could get real intense. 🔍💥
Despite talks in Geneva, Europe felt Iran wasn’t showing enough readiness for a fresh deal. Meanwhile, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio gave Europe a thumbs-up, saying America is open to peaceful dialogue to resolve the issue. 🤝
The clock is ticking! United Nations spokesman Stephane Dujarric reminded everyone there’s a 30-day window to find a deal before sanctions hit. There’s a moment to avoid further escalation and serve peace, he said. 🕒✌️
Next stop: the UN Security Council goes behind closed doors on Friday to debate the snapback move. Will they find a plot twist for peace or face another cliffhanger? 🌐📜
