- Iran will have a stronger hand in supporting the Shiite war against the Sunnis in the Middle East, financially, militarily and politically.
- Once again, Turkey is pursuing an unattainable goal: That Iran will give up its sectarian warfare but let Turkey continue to wage its own sectarian warfare.
- After the nuclear deal, the Turks see that their sectarian war against Shiite dominance in the region will be harder to fight.
Officially, Turkey has welcomed the nuclear deal that the P5+1 bloc
(the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany)
reached with Iran, and the lifting of sanctions on its eastern neighbor.
Ankara said that the deal 1) will contribute to the regional stability and economy; 2) will have a direct positive impact on Turkey; and 3) must be put into practice with full transparency.
