In a stern warning to Europe's leading powers, Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, underscored the potential repercussions of reviving the "snapback" mechanism, which would reinstate UN sanctions on Iran.
During a recent meeting in Geneva, Iran made it clear to European officials that they lack the authority to initiate this mechanism.
Despite the warning, Baghaei noted that both sides agreed to continue nuclear discussions in the coming days, seeking to resolve ongoing tensions.
