According to Amirabdolahian, Iran understands Turkey’s concerns and its need to ease them (the tensions), although he said that to achieve that goal «continuous security dialogues between the two countries are needed,» IRNA news agency reported.
Likewise, the head of Iranian diplomacy has maintained that military operations «not only cannot solve any of the problems», but also create losses and «further complicate the situation».
