Türkiye calls on Iran and US to halt attacks, resume peace talks
Türkiye on June 11 reiterated its calls on Iran and the United States to halt attacks and resume talks for a lasting agreement, expressing concerns over recent escalations.
“The reciprocal attacks that began two days ago raise fears of an escalation,” Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan told a press conference with his Bulgarian counterpart, Velislava Petrova-Chamova, in Sofia.
“We recommend that the parties halt their mutual attacks and resume negotiations,” Fidan said, recalling that the United States and Iran were very close to finalizing an agreement.
Expressing concerns over the return to an all-out war between the two sides, the minister recalled that recent months have shown that fighting brings no concrete advantage to either side.
