Israeli Official: Turkey Against a Nuclear Iran
(Ynet News) Atilla Somfalvi - The head of the diplomatic-security bureau at Israel's Defense Ministry, Amos Gilad, said Tuesday that the reconciliation agreement with Turkey was important for Israel due to the Iran nuclear situation. "Turkey has been enemies with Iran or Persia for 1,000 years; it (Turkey) cannot allow them to arm themselves with nuclear weapons. Turkey is not ready for Iran to go nuclear." Gilad also emphasized that even if Israel's relations with Turkey did not return to their previous level, the reconciliation agreement stopped the deterioration of relations between the two countries. He added that further crises, unknown to the public, had been averted.
