Turkey does not want to see a new wave of attacks against Iran, President Tayyip Erdogan says, adding that he conveyed his concerns to US President Donald Trump in a recent phone call, Reuters reports.

“We emphasise at every opportunity that it is possible to resolve these issues through dialogue and diplomacy.

“Unfortunately, we see a negative shift once again. We are doing our utmost to prevent this,” Erdogan told reporters on a return flight from Azerbaijan, according to a transcript shared by his office on Monday.
