‘What to do if India is angry?’ Türkiye’s sharp attitude and Pakistan’s new friendship, together they are creating a new maze.

New Delhi: A new turn has emerged in the relations between India and Türkiye on the platform of global diplomacy. Türkiye, considered very close to Pakistan, has now spoken openly about its relations with India. It has also defended its historical ‘brotherly’ friendship with Pakistan.

What did Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan say

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, who attended an event at the International Institute of Strategic Studies, has given a kind of advice to India and said that New Delhi should look at the relations between Turkey and Pakistan from a different perspective.

Advocacy of forgetting differences and moving forward

Amidst these serious allegations and bitterness, Türkiye is now trying to do damage control. Giving examples of Russia, America and European countries, Hakan Fidan said that we have differences with many countries. But we move forward by removing the negative issues. It is clear from this statement of the Turkish Foreign Minister that it wants to maintain its military and strategic friendship with Pakistan and does not want to spoil the economic relations in view of India’s huge market and global influence.

Türkiye’s connection to drones

The real reason behind this diplomatic clarification of Türkiye is the recent military developments. Which has increased India’s concerns. In May 2026, the Indian Army launched ‘Operation Vermillion’ in response to a horrific terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir.

Türkiye is helping Pakistan

Under this operation, Indian forces crossed the border and destroyed terrorist hideouts. According to these reports, Türkiye was providing military help to Pakistan behind the scenes since last year. Turkey had provided about 350 dangerous drones and military operators to Pakistan.

Why tension even if there is no bilateral dispute?

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stressed that there is no border dispute or direct bilateral issue between India and Türkiye. He said, we want to have good relations with India. We don’t have any bad history either. We have many positive reasons to have better relationships.

During this time he could not stop himself from taking Pakistan’s side. Fidan said that Türkiye is not the only country in the world which has good relations with Pakistan. Many other countries have also had historical solidarity with Pakistan on certain issues.
