Erdogan rejects foreign intervention, urges calm in call with Pezeshkian
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan held a phone call on Thursday with his Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian in which he expressed opposition to any foreign intervention in Iran and Ankara's desire for peace and stability in the country.
The conversation is among the only known senior-level contacts between Tehran and a neighbor since authorities crushed nationwide protests this month, killing thousands.
Erdogan added to Pezeshkian that the resolution of problems in Iran without further escalation would benefit Turkey as well, the statement added.
