Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan:

We now see that Iran is following a strategy that signals: if it faces a final attack against itself, it will take the region down with it.

This strategy particularly targets other countries in the region, especially their energy infrastructure.

Iran is well aware that the energy infrastructure in key regional states is critical for the stability of the global economy.
