We also understand they’re in an election cycle, that these kinds of issues, which they have everywhere, which is unfortunate, can cause them to have a rational judgment on all these issues.

Unless Israel draws concrete red lines in Syria and the eastern Mediterranean, the Turkish army and navy will further encroach upon Israel’s northern and maritime borders.
U.S. Ambassador to Türkiye Tom Barrack: The Israeli attack was unannounced. It’s all a matter of, let’s bring this back to a table where you can all sit down and talk.
