Iran faces August deadline to accept comprehensive nuclear deal or face renewed UN sanctions

FOX News-July17th2025

Iran has until the end of August to agree to a nuclear deal with the United States and its allies, Fox News has learned.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the foreign ministers of France, Germany and the United Kingdom set the de facto deadline, according to three sources with knowledge of a call Wednesday among the officials.

If Tehran fails to agree to a deal, it would trigger the “snapback” mechanism that automatically reimposes all sanctions previously imposed by the United Nations Security Council.

The sanctions were lifted under the 2015 Iran deal.

The Trump administration has tried pressuring Iran to accept a deal to walk back its nuclear program after U.S. and Israeli strikes targeting nuclear sites.

United Against Nuclear Iran, a nonprofit that opposes Tehran’s effort to develop a nuclear weapon, applauded Wednesday’s news.
