The Council of the European Union has scheduled a meeting of the Middle East/Gulf Working Party for 2 July 2026 at 14:30 in the Europa Building in Brussels, with Iran as the main agenda item. The meeting, convened by the Council's General Secretariat, will also include a session for any other business (AOB).
The working party, which prepares Council decisions on the Middle East and Gulf region, will discuss developments related to Iran. The agenda does not specify the exact topics under Iran, but such meetings typically cover nuclear negotiations, regional security, sanctions, and human rights issues. The AOB item allows member states to raise additional matters.
No prior coverage of this specific meeting exists in recent records. The meeting comes amid ongoing EU diplomatic efforts regarding Iran's nuclear program and its regional role. The working party's discussions will feed into higher-level Council deliberations and potential foreign policy decisions.
