Türkiye Says Israel Doesn't Want Diplomacy, Warns of Regional Disaster Amid Escalating Tensions
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Saturday that Israel's attacks on Iran right before a new round of nuclear talks with the United States aimed to sabotage the negotiations, and it showed Israel did not want to resolve issues through diplomacy. Speaking at a foreign ministers' meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation in Istanbul, Erdogan urged countries with influence over Israel not to listen to its "poison" and to seek a solution to the fighting via dialogue without allowing a wider conflict. He also called on Muslim countries to increase their efforts to impose punitive measures against Israel on the basis of international law and United Nations' resolutions. Additionally, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan told his counterparts from Muslim countries that Israel was dragging the region into "total disaster" with its attacks on Iran. He said that world powers must prevent the war from spiraling into a wider conflict. Speaking at a foreign ministers' meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation in Istanbul, Fidan called on Muslim countries to stand with Iran against Israel, and said the region had an "Israel problem" after its assault on Gaza and attacks on Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Iran. The Israel-Iran war began on June 13, 2025, when Israel launched massive airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear and military infrastructure. Iran responded with missile and drone attacks, escalating years of covert conflict into open warfare. This marks the first direct war between the two nations, raising fears of broader regional instability.
