Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said Thursday that Turkey and Israel should admit they need each other.
“Israel needs a country like Turkey in this region. We, too, should admit that we need a country like Israel,” Erdoğan told journalists on a flight back from an official trip to Saudi Arabia. “This is a regional fact. We need to see it.”
The Turkish president said that if both Israel and Turkey implement necessary measures based on mutual sincerity, “normalization will naturally ensue.”
