Trump says talks with Iran are happening "right now"

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday that talks with Iran are "going on right now," adding that "this is a last chance." He said that the two sides are talking about the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, "having it open literally by tomorrow, completely open, and that's phase one."

"And phase two is they then will talk about the nuclear capacity ... the denuclearization of Iran has to happen," he continued, adding that "that'll take a little while." Earlier on the day, Trump took to social media to lash out at the Iranian leadership, accusing them of being "unbelievably duplicitous."

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman said in Tehran on Monday that Iran is currently not engaged in any negotiations with the United States, and talks with Oman over Strait of Hormuz are underway.
