Asian markets ended mostly lower on Tuesday as investors treaded cautiously ahead of a meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on the sidelines of the G-20 summit starting later this week in Osaka, Japan. Worries about US-Iran tensions also weighed on markets as Trump imposed hard-hitting new sanctions on Iran. Further, Japanese shares ended lower as the yen rose to a near six-month high versus the dollar and reports suggested Trump is considering pulling out from the six-decade-old peace treaty with Japan.
