Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated on Saturday that a newly established defense agreement between Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan is not directed against Iran or any other nation. Speaking during an interview with the Anadolu Agency's Editor's Desk program, Fidan described the trilateral pact as a significant measure aimed at enhancing regional stability.
In the same interview, Fidan also addressed unrelated regional geopolitics, reiterating Ankara's formal refusal to recognize the Republic of Cyprus as the sole representative of the entire island. He emphasized that the sovereign and equal rights of Turkish Cypriots must be fully respected.
