Bottom line: #Istanbul produced statements, not strategy. #Turkey showcased itself as #Gaza ’s defender, but others see a country playing mediator while chasing relevance. The road to any real peace force still runs through #Washington & the UN, not #Ankara

#Erdogan ’s rhetoric remains fiery — accusing #Israel of massacre & occupation — but critics note #Ankara ’s posturing often serves domestic politics more than practical diplomacy. #Turkey was the first Muslim-majority country to recognize Israel; now it struggles to turn outrage into action
