Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan will attend the G20 Foreign Ministers’ Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, in the US from Oct 30-31, where he is expected to raise the issue of US-Iran diplomacy, Anadolu reports.
Fidan is expected to deliver remarks during a session titled ‘Geopolitical Tensions, Energy and Supply Chains’ during Friday’s meeting, according to Turkish diplomatic sources.
In his remarks, he is expected to underline the importance of increasing international pressure on Israel in response to its ongoing attacks, which are undermining international peace efforts in the Gaza Strip.
Fidan is also expected to state that Turkiye hopes the dispute between the US and Iran can be resolved through dialogue and diplomacy, while highlighting how continued hostilities are exacerbating vulnerabilities across the region.
He is also expected to point out that attacks on vessels and energy infrastructure in the Black Sea, the Strait of Hormuz, the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, and the Gulf region are adversely affecting global energy and food security, as well as international trade.
