In an exclusive interview with Al-Estiklal, Turkish political analyst Omar Korkmaz discussed Turkiye's foreign policy, focusing on relations with the U.S. and neighboring countries, and highlighting areas of both cooperation and disagreement.

Tensions between Turkiye and "Israel" escalated to an unprecedented level following Israeli Occupation’s assassination of Hamas political bureau chief Ismail Haniyeh in Iran on July 31.

The impact of anti-Arab sentiment in Turkiye has become evident and substantial, negatively affecting local economic sectors tied to Arab businesses due to racial and hostile tensions.

"Efforts by certain circles, led by anti-Turkiye elements, to undermine peace in our country through provocative activities aimed at testing public order, will not succeed thanks to the sincere efforts of all institutions of the Turkish state."

Since the establishment of the Republic on October 29, 1923, Turkiye has occasionally found itself entangled in discussions concerning the axis of its foreign relations.
