📢 🇹🇷 🇮🇱 Ankara says Israel seeks to declare Turkey ‘new enemy’
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said on Monday that Israel “cannot live without an enemy” and its government was now trying to portray Turkey as one.
Tensions between Turkey and Israel have steadily escalated since the Gaza war erupted following Hamas’s October 7, 2023, cross‑border attack in Israel.
The dispute entered a new phase over the weekend after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned US counterpart Donald Trump of “possible provocations and sabotage” that could jeopardise an initial ceasefire arrangement in the US-Israeli war on Iran.
“After Iran, Israel cannot live without an enemy,” Fidan said in a televised interview with the state‑run Anadolu news agency.
“We see that not only Netanyahu’s administration but also some figures in the opposition — though not all — are seeking to declare Turkey the new enemy,” he said.
