Iran war live: Trump denies Iran talks, Tehran claims US ‘begging’

Trump says no talks with Tehran scheduled; Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi claims US 'begging' for negotiations.

US President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney engaged in last-minute negotiations on Tuesday regarding the impending 50% tariffs on Canadian goods. The tariffs, set to take effect on Wednesday, would impact a range of Canadian imports including hockey sticks and wine, covering approximately $20 billion worth of products.

Carney emphasized the delicacy of the negotiations, stating, "The negotiations are very intense and delicate." The talks come as the USD/CAD pair rises by 0.20% to 1.3900, while the broader implications of potential tariffs weigh on currency markets.
