Turkey’s top diplomat on Friday claims Washington is being pressured by Israel to launch a military strike on Iran and urges it to resist doing so, warning it would cause “great harm” to a fragile region.
“We see that Israel is trying to persuade the US to launch a military attack on Iran… We hope the US administration will act with common sense and not allow this to happen,” Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan tells a joint press conference in Istanbul with his Iranian counterpart Abbas Araghchi.
