Trump Warns Iran of "Last Chance" Deal; Iran Says No Talks Are Happening

On August 2, 2026, President Trump said talks with Iran were underway and warned it was a "last chance" to reach a deal, but gave no deadline. Iran said no talks exist. Five months after U.S. and Israeli strikes started a war that killed Iran's top leader, a temporary pause on economic penalties has yielded no deal on nuclear checks or seized money.
