ANKARA - Turkey will work to de-escalate tensions between Iran and the United States and has been in contact with both parties after U.S. forces killed a top Iranian military commander last week, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said on Monday.
Since the U.S. killing of Qassem Soleimani, Tehran’s most prominent military commander, Cavusoglu said he has held phone calls with his Iranian and U.S. counterparts to discuss it. The issue of Iran-U.S. tensions would be on the agenda during Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to Turkey on Wednesday, he said, adding President Tayyip Erdogan had discussed the issue with Iranian, French, Iraqi and Qatari counterparts.
The United States last week killed Soleimani, the architect of Iran’s growing influence in the Middle East, in an overnight attack in Baghdad authorized by President Donald Trump.Iraq’s parliament called on Sunday for U.S. and other foreign military forces to leave amid a growing backlash against the Soleimani’s killing, which has heightened fears of a wider Middle East conflict.
