Turkey, Saudi Arabia Coordinate on Regional Defense Issues
(MENAFN) Türkiye’s Defense Minister Yasar Guler spoke by phone on Wednesday with Saudi Arabia’s Defense Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman Al Saud to discuss defense and security matters both bilaterally and across the region, according to a statement from Türkiye’s Defense Ministry.
“We reaffirmed our commitment to all measures aimed at protecting our security,” Prince Khalid said. “We condemned the Iranian attacks against our countries, discussed the impact of the regional escalation on security and stability,” he added.
The discussion comes amid heightened tensions following a joint US-Israeli attack on Iran on Feb. 28, which, according to Iranian authorities, has resulted in over 1,300 deaths, including Iran’s former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, more than 150 schoolgirls, and senior military officials. Tehran has since retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israeli cities and locations hosting US military forces in the region.
