Iran Threatens To Quit Nuclear Treaty If Europeans Bring Case To U.N.

European countries have approached the UN Security Council regarding Iran's alleged violations of the 2015 nuclear deal. The UK, Germany, and France have triggered a dispute mechanism, potentially leading to reimposed UN sanctions. In response, Iran's Foreign Minister warned of withdrawing from the Nonproliferation Treaty if European actions persist. This treaty, signed by nearly 200 countries, aims to prevent nuclear weapon proliferation. Iran has been reducing its commitments to the 2015 deal since the US withdrawal in 2018, recently announcing it will no longer adhere to uranium enrichment limits.
