Turkey to host regional and European foreign ministers for talks on regional conflicts, source says
The seven countries will meet in this format for the first time to discuss Palestinian, Yemen and Ukraine-related conflicts, a Turkish source said.
- On Friday, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan will host foreign ministers from the E3 and R4 groups in Istanbul to discuss regional conflicts, marking the first time the seven countries convene in this specific format.
- The E3 group, comprising Britain, France and Germany, has coordinated on Iran's nuclear program for more than 20 years, while the R4 group, formed this year, unites Egypt with signatories to the Makkah Defense Agreement: Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
- Ministers will address the Israeli-Palestinian issue, regional security involving Yemen and the Strait of Hormuz, and efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war, exploring "opportunities for cooperation and coordination that could be put into practice" during the coming period.
- Fidan plans to emphasize "increasing pressure on Israel" regarding settlement expansion and will stress support for Saudi Arabia's security against Iran-backed Houthi attacks and advocate for permanent freedom of navigation in the Hormuz and Mandeb Straits.
- Turkey will reiterate its ongoing "warnings and proposals" to prevent the Russia-Ukraine war from spreading to the Black Sea, aiming to draw a line under civilian deaths while addressing security risks posed by the conflict in the region.
