The United Kingdom, France and Germany called on Iran not to escalate tensions and follow up negotiations after the restoration of United Nations sanctions on Saturday.
The three countries said that they “have no choice” but to restore comprehensive measures against Tehran “as a last resort” to “its continuous nuclear escalation” and lack of cooperation.
“We urge Iran to refrain from any escalation procedure,” they said, adding: “The re -imposition of United Nations sanctions is not the end of diplomacy.”
