Iran denies reported meeting with European officials in Austria
Iran denies reported Vienna meeting amid ongoing talks to delay UN sanctions, with Europe proposing a six-month conditional postponement, diplomats said.
- Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi denied reports claiming he was to meet European officials in Vienna amid looming UN sanctions on Tehran's nuclear program.
- This denial follows escalating tensions after Israel and the US bombed Iranian nuclear sites in June and the European trio initiated a 30-day process to reimpose sanctions at August's end.
- Araghchi instead met European counterparts and the EU envoy in New York to seek a diplomatic solution while Iran maintained it has produced a "balanced" proposal despite political pressure from Europe.
- The European powers demand Iran grant full IAEA access to verify enriched uranium stockpiles, resume US negotiations, and disclose accurate nuclear material locations, conditions Iran has yet to meet.
- Failure to comply risks reinstating sanctions on September 28, which Iran warns could lead to its withdrawing from the NPT, while diplomacy remains uncertain with slim chances for breakthroughs soon.
