Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan believes there is a risk of military conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine escalating into " "Third World War", announced the electronic edition of the Turkish newspaper "Jumhuriyet", quoted by BTA.
Asked if a "World War Three" could break out, Fidan said on Haberturk TV last night: "I think the world has to take this scenario seriously, it has to take this threat seriously. There is such a risk. We've been saying this since the beginning".
Today, at a joint press conference with his Czech counterpart Jan Lipavsky in Ankara, Fidan said that the risk of the wars spreading is increasing.
Speaking of the war between Ukraine and Russia, the Turkish minister stated that "the problem can be resolved not by war, but by dialogue". "There is a need for peace and tranquility in our region. Otherwise, the risk of wars spreading increases. Countries are preparing their societies and infrastructures for war," he added.
