Turkish FM Holds Phone Talks with UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper
(MENAFN) Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan held a phone conversation with UK Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper on Tuesday, according to the Turkish Foreign Ministry.
The officials discussed ongoing diplomatic efforts aimed at ending the regional conflict and achieving a lasting and sustainable peace. They also reviewed the state of bilateral relations between Türkiye and the United Kingdom.
The call took place against the backdrop of US President Donald Trump setting a deadline of 8 pm Eastern Time Tuesday (0000GMT Wednesday) for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and reach an agreement, warning of potential strikes on its energy infrastructure if no deal is reached.
Reports indicate that tensions have surged since February 28, when the US and Israel launched a joint offensive against Iran, resulting in over 1,400 deaths, including the reported death of Ali Khamenei. Iran has since retaliated with drone and missile attacks targeting Israel, Jordan, Iraq, and Gulf states hosting US military assets, while also restricting maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.
