Turkey: Trump pullout from Iran will ‘destroy US credibility’
A top Turkish official says the Trump administration’s decision to pull out of the Iran nuclear deal is a worrying development that will also “destroy US credibility.”
Ibrahim Kalin, spokesman for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, says that the decision could lead to new tensions and clashes in the region.
Kalin says that “our position is for this agreement to continue the way it is.”
He adds, however, that Turkey didn’t want nuclear weapons in the region, saying “our main aim is to ensure that our region is completely cleared of nuclear weapons.”
