Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated that Turkey might be forced to join a nuclear arms race in the region if the development of Iran's nuclear capabilities leads to a situation where Turkey feels vulnerable. He emphasized that Turkey cannot ignore Iran's growing nuclear program, which poses a threat to regional security. Fidan also added that Turkey will consider all options to protect its interests and ensure stability in the Middle East. "We cannot allow one country to dominate the region with nuclear weapons," he said. Turkey has long expressed concern over Iran's nuclear program and calls for a diplomatic solution to the conflict.
