"Baku is a potential mediator between Tel Aviv and Ankara".

According to Ednews, Iran's "Tasnim" news agency reports citing economic newspaper "Globes" published in the Hebrew language announced that Azerbaijan is considered the most important candidate for reducing the tension between Ankara and Tel Aviv.

The newspaper said in this regard: "Today, Tel Aviv is eyeing Azerbaijan to reduce the restrictions imposed on Turkey's exports to Israel."

The author of the artcle, Dean Samuel Elmes, says: "Thanks to the presence of a president who is close to both Netanyahu and Erdogan, it is possible for Azerbaijan to play a role in reducing the tension between Israel and Turkey."

The author points to the ups and downs history of relations between the two sides and believes that the solution to this crisis will come from Baku. It is not impossible for the peace process to come from Baku, the President of Azerbaijan Ilham Aliyev is one of the rare personalities in the world - if there is another person who has special closeness to both Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan - Israel is the main buyer of oil from Baku, Azerbaijani oil Baku- Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline is sent to the coastal port of Turkey and from there it is loaded on oil tankers to Haifa.

In this regard, the possibility of closing the export route by Turkey is one of the possible scenarios, but it is unlikely to be implemented. This is not because of Turkish-Israeli relations, but because of Turkish-Azerbaijani relations. 

Relations between Ankara and Baku are based on the idea of ​​"One nation, two states", so the last thing Erdogan wants is to harm the interests of his close friend Aliyev. Based on this, it is possible to consider Baku's diplomatic influence on Turkey-Israel relations. In the previous crisis between Turkey and Israel, Azerbaijan was an important factor mediating between the parties, and today it is capable of doing such work."
