Iran says made ‘fair’ proposal to avert sanctions snapback

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Friday that he put forward a “fair and balanced” nuclear proposal to European powers to prevent the return of UN sanctions on the Islamic republic.

1news.media informs he stated that instead of substantive engagement, Iran has faced a series of excuses and deflections, including claims that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not represent the entire political establishment.

"I am glad that President Macron acknowledges that the proposal I presented is reasonable. But he, and the world, should also know that I have the full support of the entirety of the Islamic Republic of Iran, including my country's Supreme National Security Council.

The reality may be that the E3/EU diplomatic apparatus is, in fact, the one that is apparently out of commission.

It is therefore now high time for the UN Security Council to intervene and choose diplomacy over confrontation. The stakes could not be higher," he noted on X.
