Iran held talks with European powers in Istanbul on Friday to discuss its nuclear negotiations with the US as President Donald Trump issued a fresh warning for Tehran to “move quickly” towards a deal. While Tehran insists on its right to uranium enrichment, European nations including the UK, France and Germany are weighing whether to reimpose UN sanctions.

Iran met with European powers on Friday to discuss its nuclear negotiations with Washington, while US President Donald Trump issued a new threat unless the Iranians “move quickly” towards a deal.

The meeting in Istanbul followed remarks by Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warning of “irreversible” consequences if Britain, France and Germany move to reimpose United Nations sanctions that were lifted under a landmark 2015 agreement.

Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi, who attended the talks in the Turkish city, said in a post on X: “We exchanged views and discussed the latest status of the indirect nuclear negotiations and the lifting of sanctions.”

“They have a proposal, but more importantly, they know they have to move quickly or something bad is going to happen,” Trump said.
