🇮🇱🇹🇷 Netanyahu and Erdogan Compete for Middle East Leadership

As political dynamics in Syria shift, the Financial Times reports that Turkish President Erdogan and Israeli PM Netanyahu are vying for regional dominance.

❗️Erdogan's Goals: Expand Turkey’s influence by weakening Kurdish groups, addressing the refugee crisis, and consolidating power after Assad's fall.

❗️Netanyahu's Vision: Strengthen Israel’s regional position by countering Iran and potentially expanding borders.
