❗️Turkish intelligence chief warns Washington against joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran Ibrahim Kalin, head of Turkiye’s National Intelligence Organization (MIT), has warned against renewed military strikes on Iran by the US or Israeli occupation forces, emphasizing that a diplomatic resolution currently on the table offers a "fair" path forward for both sides. Speaking at a conference in Ankara organized by the Center for Middle Eastern Studies (ORSAM) and Oxford University, Kalin highlighted that diplomatic negotiations between Washington and Tehran are making tangible progress, but warned that additional military escalation risks triggering another regional spiral. "The Iran issue remains very sensitive for everybody – for the whole region. We’re trying very hard these days to stop another attack on Iran by either the US or US combined with Israel," Kalin stated, according to operational transcriptions. The intelligence chief revealed that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan personally communicated Ankara's stance directly to US President Donald Trump during a phone call two days prior, urging the White House to refrain from launch orders. "Our president spoke to President Trump just two days ago about this issue, and he urged him again not to go for a strike," Kalin added. "This will complicate things because if the US by itself or together with Israel attacks Iran again, we will go back to that vicious cycle."
