🔶 What message does the NATO summit in Ankara send to Iran? 🔻 Report by Muraad Rahmati The two-day summit of the leaders of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) began in Ankara on Tuesday, 16 Tir (July 7). Before the 36th summit of the leaders of NATO member countries, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the President of Turkey, welcomed Donald Trump, the President of the United States, who had arrived in Turkey on an official visit, at the presidential complex “Beshtepe.” The summit is being held while the war in Ukraine continues, tensions between Iran and the United States remain high, and recent developments in the Middle East have cast a shadow over the agenda of NATO leaders. In this context, the question arises: what political and security message does the NATO summit in Ankara have for Iran, and can the meeting between Trump and Erdoğan influence the course of negotiations between Tehran and Washington?
