E3 leaders urge Iran to show restraint, call for return to nuclear talks

British, German and French leaders have urged Iran not to further destabilize the region following US strikes, according to a joint statement issued Sunday.

“We call upon Iran to engage in negotiations leading to an agreement that addresses all concerns associated with its nuclear program,” UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, and French President Emmanuel Macron said.

“We stand ready to contribute to that goal in coordination with all parties. We urge Iran not to take any further action that could destabilize the region.”
