Turkey excludes the possibility of launching any military operations against Iran from its territory, Turkish FM Ahmet Davutoglu announced during a press conference in Moscow.

“Within the framework of NATO we are against taking any measures against our neighboring countries. The border with Iran is a peace border and it will remain as such,” he said, the Russian BBC service informs.

Davutoglu assured that Turkey had never worked with the countries which intended to hurt its neighbors.

To remind Obama announced that the USA will continue the policy of toughening sanctions against Iran. The FMs of the EU approved embargo on oil supplies from Iran.
