“Türkiye does not want war in the region,” Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said at a joint press conference with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Istanbul, Paralel.Az reports.

He noted that the risk of war spreading to the entire region should not be ignored: "We do not want war in our region. A cease-fire should be declared urgently in Gaza to reduce the current tension. Israel must stop its attacks against Lebanon."

Turkish top diplomat said that Netanyahu is constantly opening new fronts in the region and trying to draw Iran into this war.

Hakan Fidan also underlined that Türkiye and Iran will exist in this region forever.
