Turky and Israel try to repair relations

Turkey and Israel are trying to repair relations after an Israeli minister disrespected a Turkish ambassador on public television. The country of Turkey is split between Europe and the Middle East, much like their political center, but recently Turkey has been trying to reconnect with the Middle East. An apology was made by Israel was followed by a visit to the capital of Ankara and a military contract. Because of dissolving military problems for Turkey and a growing trade with India for Israel, contact broke down in the 1990's. Most believe that the relationship will be repaired if only because Turkey doesn't want anger the Jewish supporters in Congress.
