President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan welcomed the cease-fire between the U.S. and Iran on Wednesday, while hoping for full implementation on the ground.
"We welcome the cease-fire declared last night in the war that has turned our region into a battleground since Feb. 28," Erdoğan said.
"We hope the cease-fire will be fully implemented on the ground without giving rise to possible provocations or acts of sabotage," he added.
He also lauded Pakistan's role as a mediator and said: "We sincerely congratulate all actors who contributed to the process leading to the cease-fire, especially our friend and brother Pakistan."
Erdoğan also sent out a message for broader regional peace and reiterated that Türkiye will continue to play a key role in that end.
