Deputy foreign ministers from Iran, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany are set to convene on November 29 to discuss issues related to Iran’s nuclear program, according to Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Ismail Baghai.
Baghai, speaking to local media on November 24, said the meeting will include discussions on bilateral, regional, and international matters, continuing the dialogue initiated during the recent United Nations General Assembly.
The spokesperson reaffirmed Iran’s commitment to dialogue and international cooperation, emphasizing the importance of constructive engagement.
The upcoming talks take place against the backdrop of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), signed in January 2016 between Iran and the 5+1 group (the United States, Russia, China, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany). The JCPOA aimed to limit Iran's nuclear activities in exchange for sanctions relief. However, in May 2018, the United States withdrew from the deal and reinstated sanctions, leading Iran to announce in 2020 that it would no longer adhere to the agreement’s restrictions.
By February 2021, following the Iranian parliament’s approval of a strategic plan to counter sanctions, Iran reduced its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), limiting its monitoring access by 20-30%.
The November 29 talks are expected to address these ongoing challenges and explore pathways to resolve differences over Iran’s nuclear program while balancing regional and global security concerns.
