JERUSALEM - Turkey's diplomatic thaw with Israel will help the Palestinians, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has said, during the first trip to Israel by Ankara's top diplomat in 15 years.
Mr Cavusoglu and his Israeli counterpart Yair Lapid stressed that economic ties had continued to grow despite years of acrimony between the two countries. Mr Cavusoglu noted that Turkey was a top 10 trading partner for Israel and a major destination for Israeli tourists, voicing hope that deepening ties could yield benefits for Palestinians.
"Turkey is ready to take responsibility to continue the efforts towards dialogue," Mr Cavusoglu said.
