Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan expressed hope that Donald Trump, who won the US presidential election, will influence the situation in the region, including the war between Israel and Hamas terrorists.
The Telegram channel “Alexey Zheleznov” writes about this.
The Turkish leader stressed that it would be a good move for Trump to limit security assistance to Israel and call for a cessation of hostilities.
Erdogan also said he had invited the new US president for an official visit to Turkey and expressed confidence that such interaction could help resolve several conflicts, including the war in Ukraine.
In addition, he intends to discuss with Trump the issue of the withdrawal of American troops from Syria, considering it an important issue for the stability of the region.

Donald Trump is set to make sweeping changes to US policy, including a major overhaul of relations with Iran, in what sources say could be one of the biggest US foreign policy overhauls in recent years.
The former president plans not only to change the United States’ approach internationally, but also to actively counter the so-called “deep state,” in whose existence he believes. According to CNN, Trump is laying off thousands of government employees, including members of the diplomatic corps.
Trump has already chosen a key person to lead the transition process at the State Department: Brian Hook, who previously served as special envoy for Iran and was a supporter of tough sanctions against this country.
Hook noted that US sanctions have dealt a blow to the Iranian economy and Tehran’s financial capabilities, and the goal of this policy was not only to conclude a new agreement with Iran, but also to weaken its economic power.
