ISTANBUL / ANKARA (AA) - Türkiye’s Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan on Wednesday said that his country can be part of the guarantor mechanism that Ankara proposed, if an agreement on a two-state solution is reached.

Fidan warned that without the immediate implementation of the two-state solution, a fourth Gaza war is inevitable. “We will be perpetually entangled in conflicts,” he said.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has another agenda, Fidan said, adding: “Cease-fire in Palestine doesn’t align” with his political objectives.

On Türkiye’s fight against PKK/YPG terror groups, Fidan said that PKK is spreading across Iraq like “a cancer cell.”

"This ceased to be our problem, but has now become a security issue for Iraq," he further added.

“We need to fight against PKK/YPG, and return oil and energy resources it controls to the Syrian people,” the foreign minister said.
