During the 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel, Turkey, while not providing military support to Iran, offered open diplomatic backing. Ankara strongly condemned Israeli air strikes and defended Iran’s right to retaliate. However, the situation has shifted. Turkey has taken a significant step that further complicates Iran’s position on the international stage. On the orders of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the Turkish government has frozen the assets of several organizations and companies linked to Iran. These institutions are reportedly involved in Iran’s nuclear program, uranium enrichment, and research activities. This decision was published in the country’s official gazette, making it immediately effective.
