Israeli diplomat in Turkey expects ambassador appointment “within weeks“

ANKARA, 27 August 2022, (TON): The Israeli charge d’affaires in Turkey said “ the re-appointment of an ambassador to Ankara could happen within weeks, while repeating Israel’s expectation that the Hamas office in Istanbul be closed down.”

In a roundtable meeting with journalists, Israel’s current top representative in Ankara Irit Lillian said the process of re-appointing an ambassador to Turkey was only a matter of when and not if.

Lillian said “it’s only because of elections in Israel that things might be delayed on the Israeli side but I hope it will be on time and it will be just a few more weeks and the process will be over.”

Israel will hold a general election on Nov. 1.
