Iran protests UN meeting on nuclear program, summons diplomats

Iran has summoned diplomats from the UK, France, and Germany in response to a recent UN Security Council meeting about its nuclear program. The Iranian foreign ministry criticized the meeting as "provocative" and lacking legal justification. The closed-door meeting was initiated by six council members, including the US and UK, amid concerns over Iran's uranium enrichment levels, which are nearing weapons-grade purity. Iran maintains that its nuclear program is peaceful. Tensions have escalated since the US withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal and reinstated sanctions. Iran's Supreme Leader has rejected new negotiations, despite US President Trump's offer for talks. China will host a meeting with Russia and Iran on the nuclear issue.
