The reconciliation suffered a massive setback when Turkey launched a military offensive against Rojava and the Syrian Government. Iran, which is on good term with Turkey since the coup, began to criticize and condemn Turkey for invading Syria and violating Syrian territorial rights. Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif has voiced opposition to the offensive, viewing it as a violation of Syria's sovereignty. In addition, Iran's parliamentary speaker Ali Larijani canceled his scheduled trip to Turkey. Iran and Turkey’s lack of trust for each other has hampered them from achieving their various economic and political goals.
