00:00A trilateral meeting will take place on Tuesday between Iran, China and Russia to discuss Tehran's
00:09nuclear program and the risk of sanctions being re-imposed, Iranian Foreign Ministry
00:13spokesperson Esmail Bagai said on Monday. The meeting comes ahead of renewed nuclear
00:19talks with France, Germany and the UK scheduled for this Friday in Istanbul.
00:30The three European powers along with China and Russia are the remaining
00:59parties to a 2015 nuclear deal that lifted sanctions on Iran in return for restrictions
01:04on its nuclear program. European countries have threatened to trigger the deal's snapback
01:10mechanism, which would allow sanctions to be re-imposed in the case of non-compliance by Tehran.
01:16Bagai said Iran is, quote, continuously coordinating with Beijing and Moscow on how to prevent the
01:21mechanism. He also noted that there is no plan for talks with the US, which ended after a 12-day
01:27conflict waged by Israel and the US against Iran last month.
