Iran meets European diplomats for renewed nuclear talks

The article discusses renewed nuclear talks between Iran and European diplomats. These talks are the first since the attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities by Israel and the US in June. The talks aim to revive the 2015 nuclear deal, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), which was abandoned by the US in 2018. The JCPOA placed restrictions on Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. The discussions are taking place in the backdrop of heightened tensions between Iran and the West. Iran has been accused of providing drones to Russia for use in the Ukraine war, while the West has imposed sanctions on Iran for its crackdown on nationwide protests. The article notes that the outcome of the talks remains uncertain, as both sides have entrenched positions. However, the resumption of negotiations is seen as a positive step towards potentially reviving the nuclear deal and reducing regional tensions.
