Iran weighs response to reimposed UN nuclear sanctions

The United Nations has reimposed sanctions on Iran's nuclear program, leading to a possible confrontation with the West. The "snapback" sanctions freeze assets, halt arms deals, and penalize ballistic missile development. Iran's parliament is considering withdrawing from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, raising fears of weaponization, though officials deny this intent. The Iranian currency has hit a new low, increasing economic hardship. While some Iranians advocate for negotiation, government officials have warned of reciprocal action against countries enforcing the sanctions.
