This 60-minute webinar, hosted by Open Nuclear Network (ONN), will provide timely insights into one of today’s most urgent nuclear policy questions before the snapback deadline. The session will begin by grounding the audience in recent developments around Iran, before exploring the immediate aftermath of potential sanctions reimposition. Drawing on expert perspectives, the discussion will examine whether sanctions are more likely to reduce or actually intensify nuclear risks, including the possibility of increased military action, reduced cooperation with the IAEA or even withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).

Following opening reflections, experts will respond to a set of questions on internal decision-making, implications for global non-proliferation and anticipated responses from major powers and regional players. A moderated discussion and audience Q&A will follow, with a focus on transparency gaps, escalation risks and possible pathways to renewed diplomacy.
