Saudi Foreign Minister spoke Saturday with his Turkish counterpart, stressing the need to strengthen all diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the region, according to a report.
The conversation between Saudi Foreign Minister and Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan comes amid heightened regional tensions, with Turkey and Israel engaged in a war of words in recent weeks. As The Zioneer has reported, Israeli officials have expressed concern over Turkish military buildup near the Syrian frontier, and Prime Minister Netanyahu has raised the issue with U.S. President Trump. The Saudi initiative signals a diplomatic push to lower the temperature, though no details of the call were released.
