Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said that Turkey wants to establish good relations with Israel. In the meantime, discussions are going on about this. He was speaking to reporters after Friday prayers. Erdogan said Turkey has issues with some of Israel's top figures. If they didn't have an issue with Turkey, our relationship would be different. "We want to improve relations with Israel," Erdogan said.
According to the report, Turkey has trade and diplomatic relations with Israel.
But in the international arena, the two countries have had a bitter relationship for a long time. Turkey withdrew its ambassador in 2018 due to this. The country was also fiercely critical of the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian issue. However, Turkey has recently sent an ambassador to Israel again. Then came the speculation that the country wanted to establish good relations with Israel. Erdogan made the remarks after Friday prayers.
On the Palestinian issue, he said it was impossible for Turkey to accept Israel's policy on Palestine. Their unforgivable treatment of Palestine is unacceptable. But we are interested in taking our relationship further if there is no issue with high-ranking Israeli people.
