"France, Britain and Germany warned Iran against "escalatory action" on Sunday as deep UN sanctions on Tehran came back into force following failed last-minute nuclear talks. The three countries' foreign ministers said they would continue to seek "a new diplomatic solution to ensure Iran never gets a nuclear weapon". "The reimposition of UN sanctions is not the end of diplomacy," the foreign ministers of the three European nations, known as the E3, said in a joint statement."
""The reactivation of annulled resolutions is legally baseless and unjustifiable... all countries must refrain from recognising this illegal situation," the Iranian foreign ministry said in a statement. "The Islamic Republic of Iran will firmly defend its national rights and interests, and any action aimed at undermining the rights and interests of its people will face a firm and appropriate response," it added."
France, Britain and Germany warned Iran against escalatory action as deep UN sanctions came back into force after last-minute nuclear talks failed. The three countries said they will continue seeking a diplomatic solution to ensure Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon and described reimposition of UN sanctions as not the end of diplomacy. The sanctions bar dealings linked to Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile activities and were activated through the snapback mechanism. Iran recalled envoys from the three nations, condemned the reinstatement as unjustifiable and legally baseless, and vowed to defend national rights and respond to any undermining actions.
