Iran will hold talks with European parties in Istanbul on Friday, two European diplomatic sources and an Iranian diplomatic source said on Tuesday. Britain, France and Germany initially hesitated about the talks, fearing that such talks could open up a parallel track that would interfere with the negotiations promoted by the Trump administration to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. But European diplomats said they chose to continue the talks because it was in their interest to maintain dialogue with Iran and reaffirm their vision for a new nuclear deal. Iran is also eager to hold the talks in order to keep multiple options open and assess the positions of European powers on the issue of re-imposing UN sanctions on Iran. European powers are not parties to the current Iran-US negotiations, but the three powers have been seeking to coordinate closely with Washington to decide whether and when the "snapback sanctions mechanism" should be used to put pressure on Iran over its nuclear program. According to diplomats and a document seen by Reuters, the three countries may initiate "snapback sanctions" in August if no substantive agreement is reached by then.SpaceX: Starship completed a long six-engine static fire test and is currently making final preparations for its ninth flight test.Sources: Iran and Europe will hold nuclear talks on Friday.On May 14, the Czech Presidents Office announced on the 13th that President Pavel confirmed that the countrys parliamentary House of Representatives election will be held on October 3 and 4 this year.
