Turkey-Israel: From Strategic partners to regional rivals
In the 1950’s and again in the 1990’s, Israel and Turkey have been regional partners, almost best friends. They both faced the hostility of their common neighbor separating them, Syria. They were officially or practically in the Western orbit. And they had no conflict over the body of water they live next to, the Mediterranean. All of that changed over the last twenty years, with Turkey at odds with Israel over religion, Palestinians and energy resources, and pulling away from the United States. Is it reversible, or are Turkey and Israel doomed to remain rivals, as long as Ankara is led by President Erdogan?
