Turkey strengthens its position as a new regional power amid declining Iranian influence

The Israeli propaganda machine continues its campaigns against Turkey, claiming that it seeks to establish itself as an alternative trade bridge to the occupation.

Kafir Chouva, a researcher on Middle Eastern affairs, pointed out that the regional situation has changed after two years of conflicts, where Iran has declined and Turkey's strength has increased with support from Qatar.

Before the attack launched by Hamas on October 7, Israel was preparing for a strategic leap through a trade corridor extending from India to the Mediterranean, but recent events have disrupted this plan.

Saudi Arabia has tightened its grip on the situation, while the Houthis have closed the Red Sea, leading to the freezing of the trade project, while events accelerated covertly with the collapse of the Assad regime in Syria.

Turkey has become the most influential player in northern Syria, allowing it to offer a new trade corridor bypassing Israel, enhancing its position as a major regional destination.
