📌 Iran Nuclear Deal Collapse? Snapback Sanctions Return in 2025 | JCPOA Breakdown & Global Fallout

The Iran nuclear issue is back in the global spotlight. On September 17, 2025, the snapback mechanism under the JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) was officially triggered—bringing back UN and EU sanctions on Iran's economy, trade, banking, energy, and transport sectors.

But are these sanctions even legal? And what does this mean for Iran’s future, its nuclear program, and the global balance of power?

In this deep dive, we unpack:
🔹 The origins and fragile history of the JCPOA (2015–2018)
🔹 How the U.S. withdrawal in 2018 set the stage for renewed tensions
🔹 Why France, Germany, and the UK (E3) invoked snapback in 2025
🔹 The real impact of sanctions on the Iranian population
🔹 President Masoud Pezeshkian’s bold response
🔹 The role of Russia, China, BRICS, and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the shifting global order
🔹 The broader legal, humanitarian, and geopolitical implications

This isn’t just about uranium enrichment or ballistic missiles—it’s about the erosion of diplomacy, the weaponization of economics, and the hypocrisy embedded in Western foreign policy.
