Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan urged U.S. President Donald Trump to avoid renewed attacks on Iran, warning that a wider conflict would bring costs to countries beyond those fighting.
Erdogan made the appeal Monday while returning from Azerbaijan. He said he had raised Turkey’s concerns in a recent phone call with Trump and argued that disputes should be resolved through dialogue and diplomacy.
He said further clashes would affect Turkey, Gulf countries, Iraq, Syria, Europe and Asia. Erdogan also said Turkey was working to prevent the situation from deteriorating further.
The appeal comes as Trump has discussed the prospect of renewed strikes against Iran alongside negotiations.
