Iran confirmed it will meet Britain, France, and Germany—the so‑called E3—in Istanbul on Friday, July 25ᵗʰ, with each side represented by deputy foreign ministers and the European Union’s foreign‑policy chief Kaja Kallas observing. Tehran’s spokesman Esmail Baghaei said Iran accepted “in response to the request of European countries” and will press for lifting sanctions tied to its civilian nuclear program.
