A: Hey there! Did you catch the news today?
B: No, what's up?

A: Well, Iran is gonna have talks about their nuclear stuff with Britain, France, and Germany. It's happening in Istanbul on Friday.
B: Really? What's that all about?

A: The three countries are trying to activate a mechanism that would bring back UN Security Council sanctions they lifted in 2015.

B: So, it's just talks for show, huh?

A: Looks like it! But who knows what might happen? Let's wait and see!

Iranian state television reported on Monday that Tehran is scheduled to hold talks on its nuclear development program with Britain, France and Germany.



It said the talks will be held in Istanbul, Turkey, on Friday.



Britain, France and Germany are moving to trigger the "snapback" mechanism that automatically reimposes UN Security Council sanctions that were lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal.

The Iranian government is seeking to fend off resumption of the UN sanctions by agreeing to talk with the three European nations.



However, it remains adamant that it will not make any concessions on its nuclear program.
