Presidents of Iran and Turkey Meet Amid Regional Power Realignment at ECO Summit

According to Saed News, the President of Iran met with his Turkish counterpart, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, during the 17th summit of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO), which convenes key regional states to promote economic integration and geopolitical collaboration.

The high-level discussion took place following Iran’s presidential address to the summit, in which the Iranian leader laid out a roadmap for enhanced multilateral cooperation. While official details of the talks remain under wraps, the meeting signals a clear intent to deepen bilateral relations at a time of major regional shifts.

Beyond his speech, the Iranian President also held a series of bilateral talks with other participating leaders, underscoring Tehran’s diplomatic push to revitalize regional engagement through economic and political dialogue.

This encounter between the Turkish and Iranian heads of state comes as both nations face shared challenges and overlapping interests across issues such as border security, trade corridors, energy policy, and regional conflict resolution — particularly in Syria and the Caucasus. With the ECO platform serving as a backdrop, the meeting may set the tone for a more coordinated Middle Eastern posture in the months ahead.
