Potential Cooperation Between Turkey and Israel in the Energy Sector
November 5, 2025
The U.S. Ambassador to Turkey hinted at potential economic and energy cooperation between Turkey and Israel. His remarks sparked backlash in Turkey, with Erdoğan's ally dismissing them as delusional. The Ambassador suggested that if the ceasefire in Gaza holds, the two countries may cooperate in a way that stretches from the Caspian to the Mediterranean. The idea of energy interconnection between Turkey and Israel has been in discussion for at least a decade. This plan includes transporting natural gas via a pipeline from the Leviathan field.
