Curbs set to 'snap back'; Iran recalls envoys to France, Britain, Germany

TEHRAN: Iran has recalled its ambassadors to France, Britain and Germany, collectively known as the E3, following their launch of a mechanism to reinstate international sanctions on Tehran, the Iranian foreign ministry said on Saturday.In a statement, the ministry condemned E3’s decision to trigger the “snapback” mechanism as “irresponsible,” adding that the ambassadors were summoned to Tehran for consultations.
