"The United Kingdom, France and Germany have said they wish to restart stalled nuclear talks with Iran and the United States, more than a month after the three European countries triggered a mechanism reinstating the United Nations sanctions on Iran for the first time in a decade. The E3 countries' joint statement on Friday came nearly two weeks after UN sanctions were reimposed on Iran, under a snapback process that the three nations had initiated on August 28 and that became effective one month later."
"In response, Iran recalled its envoys to the three European countries for consultations. Iran has said that, following those revived sanctions, it would not immediately resume nuclear talks. The sanctions set up a global ban on cooperation with Iran on nuclear, military, banking and shipping industries. The sanctions are aimed at imposing new economic pain to pressure Iran, but it remains to be seen if all countries will enforce them."

The snapback became effective a month after being triggered and reimposed a global ban on cooperation with Iran in nuclear, military, banking and shipping industries. Iran recalled its envoys to the three European countries for consultations and stated it would not immediately resume nuclear talks while examining the consequences of the sanctions. The sanctions aim to increase economic pressure on Iran. The Iranian rial fell to record lows ahead of the sanctions taking effect.
