Iran and the E3 (France, Germany, and the United Kingdom) met on July 25 in Istanbul, the first nuclear talks since Israel attacked Iran on June 13.

In a July 25 post on X, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazam Gharibabadi wrote that both sides brought “specific ideas” to the meeting and that the talks, which included nuclear and sanctions issues, were “serious, frank and detailed.” He said talks would continue, but the E3 and Iran have little time to make progress.
