On August 28, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany triggered the “snapback” process under the 2015 Iran nuclear deal — also known as the JCPOA — giving Tehran 30 days to negotiate a pathway that would return it to full compliance and avoid the reimposition of sweeping UN sanctions.

This briefing featured Alan Eyre, Distinguished Diplomatic Fellow at the Middle East Institute and member of the US State Department’s 2015 JCPOA negotiating team, alongside Ross Harrison, Senior Fellow at the Middle East Institute and author of Decoding Iran’s Foreign Policy: Strategic Interests, Power and Influence.
