Erdogan Says Turkey Likes “Better Ties” with ‘Israel’

Erdogan said on Friday that Turkey would like to have “better ties” with the Zionist entity, adding that talks at the intelligence level continued between the two sides.

Speaking to reporters after Friday prayers in Istanbul, Erdogan said Turkey had issues with “people at the top level” in the Zionist entity and that ties could have been “very different” if it were not for those issues.

“If there were no issues at the top level, our ties could have been very different,” he added. “We would like to bring our ties to a better point.”
