Iran and European Powers Discuss Nuclear Program Amid Sanctions Deadline
Iran is talking with France, Germany, and Britain about its nuclear program.
These countries are worried Iran might be trying to make a nuclear bomb and could start putting sanctions on Iran again.
They're discussing this because a deadline is coming up.
Iran is saying that the sanctions are not fair and that they will continue to try to resolve it diplomatically.
The main topics include how Iran enriches uranium and letting international inspectors check their sites.
If Iran doesn't cooperate, sanctions could be put back in place.
These talks are key to trying to keep everyone safe and ensure Iran uses nuclear power for peaceful purposes.
Iran's foreign minister spoke with European counterparts about nuclear program.

Talks are focused on preventing the reimposition of UN sanctions.
