Israel and Turkey have decided to restore full diplomatic ties and will return ambassadors to each other's countries, Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid's office said on Wednesday.Upgrading relations will contribute to deepening ties between the two peoples, expanding economic, trade, and cultural ties, and strengthening regional stability,& the statement said.Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu confirmed the move saying, &Appointment of ambassadors was one of the steps for the normalization of ties.
Such a positive step came from Israel as a result of these efforts, and as Turkey, we also decided to appoint an ambassador to Israel, to Tel Aviv.In 2018, Turkey recalled its ambassador to Israel after deadly protests on the Gaza border and then-US President Donald Trump moved Washington's embassy to Jerusalem.
