Turkey's Efforts to Normalize Diplomatic Relations with Israel after Withdrawal of Ambassadors both of the Two Countries in 2018

This study aims to provide information and literacy for readers regarding Turkey's efforts
towards normalizing diplomatic relations with Israel after withdrawal of both of their embassies. What
makes it interesting is that several times the relationship between Turkey and Israel has progressed and
regressed due to the unfinished Israeli attack on Palestine, besides that Turkey also defended Palestine.
However, Turkey is currently trying to normalize its relations with Israel for national interest. This
study concludes that efforts to normalize relations with Israel are not easy to do because of the efforts
of Turkey which still wants to cooperate with the enemy of Palestine. The findings in this study are
Turkey's interest in peace efforts with Israel from an economic, political, and security perspective; and
efforts to normalize diplomatic relations between Turkey and Israel in 2022. This study will use
descriptive research methods and qualitative data analysis techniques that explain how the Turkish
government's efforts to normalize relations with Israel are between improving and deteriorating in
addition to Turkey's efforts to continue to defend Palestine using secondary data. This study will use
the concept of strategy normalization to explain the stages of normalization sought by Turkey in
improving its diplomatic relations with Israel.
