Vance Delays Iran Talks, Andy Burnham's Victory | The Opening Trade 6/19/2026

About this video

Talks between the US and Iran that had been planned for Friday in Switzerland will not take place, Reuters reported, citing a Swiss Foreign Ministry statement. Vice President JD Vance will not depart Thursday night for the face-to-face negotiations, the White House had said earlier. The pound edged lower as Andy Burnham won a historic contest for an open parliamentary seat, paving the way for the Greater Manchester mayor to challenge Prime Minister Keir Starmer for his job. The Opening Trade has everything you need to know as markets open across Europe. With analysis you won't find anywhere else, we break down the biggest stories of the day and speak to top guests who have skin in the game. Hosted by Anna Edwards and Lizzy Burden.
