Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated in a February 27, 2025, interview with Al-Jazeera Network (Qatar) that Iran's foreign policy is "very dangerous," suggesting it may have brought some benefits to Iran but that the cost of maintaining these benefits is too high. 

He warned that, in the long run, this policy would burden both Iran and the region. 

Fidan mentioned that he had told IRGC Qods Force commander Qasem Soleimani that this foreign policy needed to be changed.
