Turkey open to Hormuz demining role

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan has stated Turkey would be willing to participate in demining operations in the Strait of Hormuz following a potential U.S.-Iran agreement. Fidan called such an effort a "humanitarian duty" in principle, linking Turkey's involvement to the successful conclusion of a peace deal between Washington and Tehran. This marks a significant diplomatic opening, as Turkey positions itself as a potential contributor to regional maritime security. The offer underscores the broader international preparations for stabilizing the critical waterway should a diplomatic breakthrough occur.
