Turkey's Erdogan hopes Iran unrest will be resolved through diplomacy

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday described the unrest in Iran as a "new test" for Tehran, pledging Turkey would "stand against any initiative" that would drag the region into chaos.

"We believe that, with a ... policy prioritising dialogue and diplomacy, our Iranian brothers will, God willing, get through this trap-filled period," Erdogan said in a televised speech after the weekly cabinet meeting.
