“We are ready to activate all diplomatic channels to de-escalate the conflict between Israel and Iran. Türkiye can serve as a mediator and contribute to ensuring regional stability,” Erdoğan said, according to a statement from the Presidency’s Directorate of Communications.
Erdoğan also indicated that Ankara is willing to support renewed negotiations concerning Iran’s nuclear program.
Meanwhile, the conflict has already impacted global energy markets — Brent crude oil prices rose above $73 per barrel. In Türkiye, diesel prices surged by approximately 23 kuruş in a single day. Experts warn that if the Strait of Hormuz is blocked, oil prices could reach $150 per barrel.
