Türkiye set to host upcoming "3+3" foreign ministers meeting

Türkiye is set to host the next meeting of foreign ministers in the "3+3" format, Iranian Ambassador to Armenia Mehdi Sobhani has announced.

This forthcoming meeting will mark a significant step for the platform, as it will be the first time Türkiye has hosted such an event, Caliber.Az reports via Iranian media.

The "3+3" platform, which includes Armenia, Azerbaijan, Russia, Iran, and Türkiye, was established to address regional issues and foster diplomatic dialogue.

The initial meeting of this group took place in December 2021 in Moscow, where it was conducted at the level of deputy foreign ministers. Since then, the platform has evolved to include higher-level discussions.

The most recent meeting in this series was held in October 2023 in Tehran, where foreign ministers from the participating countries convened to discuss ongoing regional matters.

On November 15, 2023, Georgia officially withdrew from the platform.

The upcoming meeting in Türkiye, scheduled for 2024, will continue the tradition of rotating host countries for these critical discussions.
