Turkiye is assessing potential measures in case of a conflict between Iran and the United States, according to a Turkish diplomatic source. The review comes as Tehran and Washington resume negotiations while the United States increases its military presence in the Middle East. Iran has warned it could target United States bases in the region if attacked, though its top diplomat recently said a deal remains 'within reach' if diplomacy prevails.
Ankara, which shares a border with Iran and is a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, has reiterated its opposition to military intervention and regional destabilization. Turkish officials are considering all possible scenarios and evaluating steps to protect Turkish citizens, while emphasizing that any action violating Iran's sovereignty is 'out of the question.'
Turkiye has maintained contact with both sides in an effort to ease tensions and has called for a diplomatic resolution. Authorities also denied reports claiming that Turkiye was preparing to enter Iranian territory to prevent a potential influx of refugees.
