Despite actors like Israel seeking to reignite the flames of war, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says Ankara is following the process with “cautious optimism”, Anadolu reports.

Speaking at the ‘Century of Turkiye — Strong Hub for Investment’ event at the Dolmabahce Presidential Office in Istanbul, Erdogan says neither the region nor the world can return to the past, adding, “the repercussions of fractures caused by such a major tremor will become clearer over time.

“By successfully managing one of the biggest security crises of recent years, Turkiye has once again confirmed and cemented its status as an island of stability in its region,” Erdogan states.
