Istanbul, January 15 (Xinhua) — Turkey opposes any military operation against Iran and supports efforts to protect regional stability, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said at a press briefing here on Thursday.

He expressed hope that the United States and Iran would resolve the problems between them through mediators, other parties, or direct negotiations.

The minister stressed that dialogue remains the only viable avenue for resolving disputes, warning that any widespread instability in Iran would exceed the region's ability to mitigate its consequences.

Türkiye maintains close ties with Iran, and Ankara is directly concerned about events there, emphasized H. Fidan.

Iran must resolve its internal problems, settle disputes with neighboring countries, and engage in nuclear diplomacy to address the structural causes of its economic difficulties, he added.
