The Group of Seven (G7) foreign ministers have intensified calls for Iran to restart negotiations on a comprehensive nuclear agreement and fully cooperate with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). In a joint statement released Monday, the ministers emphasized the need for a "verifiable and durable" deal to address concerns over Iran's nuclear program.
The statement, issued after a June 25 meeting in The Hague, urged Tehran to comply with its safeguards obligations by providing IAEA inspectors with unrestricted access to nuclear facilities and verifiable data. "The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty remains fundamental to global security," the ministers affirmed, stressing Iran's continued adherence to the pact.
This diplomatic push comes amid heightened regional tensions, with G7 members—Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK, US, and EU representatives—reaffirming their commitment to non-proliferation frameworks. Analysts suggest the coordinated stance aims to create momentum for renewed dialogue while addressing international concerns about nuclear transparency.
As Middle East stability remains a key global priority, the outcome of these efforts could significantly impact energy markets and regional security architectures. Business leaders and policymakers worldwide are monitoring developments for implications on trade flows and geopolitical risk assessments.
