Yesterday, in accordance with UN Security Council resolution 2231, the Foreign Ministers of France, Germany and my own country, the United Kingdom, notified the Security Council that we believe Iran to be in significant non-performance of its commitments under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.\u00a0Since 2019, Iran has increasingly and deliberately ceased performing almost all of its JCPoA commitments.<\/p>\n

This includes the accumulation of a high enriched uranium stockpile which lacks any credible civilian justification.

The failure of last-ditch talks in Geneva has not just confirmed Tehran\u2019s international isolation; it has ignited vicious infighting within the ruling factions and exposed a leadership that is paralyzed, cornered, and left with nothing but empty threats. This crisis reveals a regime caught in a self-made trap, where any move\u2014either retreat or defiance\u2014hastens its own internal collapse.<\/p>\n
