Israeli President Isaac Herzog said the aim of his visit to Turkey is to lay foundations for the development of friendly relations between Turkey, Israel, and the peoples of the two countries.
"Israel and Turkey can and should engage in a cooperation that will impact this region we all call home," Herzog said.
"The Turkish foreign minister will visit Israel next month and will hold talks with the Israeli foreign minister, and this will enable the continuation of the dialogue," he added.
Stressing that members of all religions can and should live together in peace in the region, Herzog said: "I wish that we work together to establish stability, prosperity, peace, and security in the region."
The Israeli president also said his visit to Turkey is the continuation of dialogue and connection since he took office last July, Anadolu agency reported.
