Turkey's ruling party spokesperson Omer Celik warned that foreign intervention in Iran would worsen regional crises and singled out Israel for provoking instability, according to his remarks.
Omer Celik, the spokesperson for Turkey's ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP), issued a statement Friday morning warning that any foreign intervention in Iran would deepen regional crises. Celik singled out Israel, accusing it of playing a role in provoking instability in the region. The statement continues a pattern of increasingly hostile Turkish rhetoric toward Israel in recent weeks, as The Zioneer has reported: Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said on July 2 that Israel is 'seeking a new enemy' and that Turkey has 'no problem' with confrontation. President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has repeatedly accused Israel of destabilizing the Middle East, Africa, and the Mediterranean. Celik's remarks come amid heightened tensions between Israel and Iran, and as Turkey positions itself as a regional actor challenging Israeli and Iranian influence. The statement is a single-source report via the OSINTdefender channel and has not been independently corroborated.
