Turkey Highlights Ongoing Negotiations Between Iran and United States
Antalya, Turkey – Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated today that both Iran and the United States possess a desire to pursue talks aimed at resolving the ongoing conflict, despite persistent disagreements. Speaking at a conference in Antalya, Fidan emphasized the critical phase of these negotiations, noting the willingness of both parties to continue discussions. Fidan revealed he recently met with representatives from the United States, Iran, and Pakistan, who are involved in mediating the talks.
The purpose of these meetings was to explore how Turkey could provide support to the diplomatic efforts. The bilateral ceasefire between Iran and the United States, set to expire on Tuesday, remains a key point of discussion. Fidan indicated that the situation in the Hormuz Strait continues to present challenges, with two ships reportedly returning to normal operations following a period of paralysis.
“What is good is that they continue negotiations and have the will to continue negotiations,” Fidan commented during a press conference broadcast by TRT World. The Turkish government is actively engaged in facilitating these discussions, seeking a pathway towards a sustainable resolution between Iran and the United States.
