Turkey is intensifying diplomatic efforts to mediate peace in Iran, as Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan revealed strategic discussions with partners including Oman, amid escalating conflict involving the United States and Israel's military actions against Tehran.
As a NATO ally and Iran's neighbor, Turkey has consistently underscored the importance of stability in the region, emphasizing the need for a peaceful negotiation over Iran's nuclear and missile ambitions.
