Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Saturday held a series of high-level meetings in Istanbul with senior officials from the UN, Qatar, Pakistan, and Iran, amid growing regional tension following Israel's attacks on Iran.
The meetings took place on the sidelines of the 51st Session of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Council of Foreign Ministers. Erdogan met with UN Alliance of Civilizations High Representative Miguel Angel Moratinos, Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini, Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
In talks with Qatari and Pakistani officials, Erdogan emphasized the urgent need to de-escalate tensions, warning that the region “cannot afford another war.” He stressed the importance of preventing Syria and Iraq from being drawn into the conflict and underscored that diplomacy—not confrontation—is the only viable path forward.
With Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar and Army Chief Gen. Asim Munir, Erdogan noted the growing strategic cooperation between Türkiye and Pakistan, while also acknowledging the regional risks posed by the Israel-Iran confrontation. He said the only sustainable solution to the nuclear dispute lies in a return to negotiations between Tehran and Washington.
Presidential Advisor Akif Cagatay Kilic, Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, and National Intelligence Director Ibrahim Kalin attended the meetings.
