Türkiye called on Washington and Tehran to return to the negotiating table, stating that the military conflict involving the US, Israel and Iran has led to instability in the region, with increasingly severe global repercussions. The call was included in a statement issued following a meeting of Türkiye’s National Security Council in Ankara, chaired by President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
According to the statement issued by the Directorate of Communications of the Presidency of the Republic of Türkiye, “The war involving the United States, Israel and Iran has evolved into a vicious cycle of recurring hostilities, triggering vulnerabilities across the region; the parties were urged to return to negotiations and bring an end to the conflict, whose global repercussions are becoming increasingly severe.”
The statement also noted that the Israeli administration continues its attacks despite failing to fulfil its commitments and obligations to establish peace in Gaza and Lebanon.
It further stated: “The international community was called upon to take concrete measures against the Israeli administration, which also violates Syria’s territorial integrity and sovereignty in its efforts to undermine regional stability.”
