Trump Calls Iran Deal a "Last Chance" With No Deadline; Tehran Denies Talks Exist

On August 2, 2026, President Trump said Iran talks were underway and warned it was a "last chance" to sign a deal, yet set no deadline. Tehran denied any planned talks. The standoff persists five months after joint U.S.-Israeli strikes began a war that has cost Iran its Supreme Leader and produced a 60-day sanctions waiver but no agreement on nuclear inspections or frozen assets.
