The
 reconciliation between Israel and Turkey is a very important 
development that will help advance the cause of peace and stability in 
the region. Prime Minister Netanyahu and Prime Minister Erdogan deserve 
great credit for showing the leadership necessary to make this possible.
As I 
discussed with Prime Minister Netanyahu this evening, this will help 
Israel meet the many challenges it faces in the region. We look forward 
to an expeditious implementation of the agreement and the full 
normalization of relations so Israel and Turkey can work together to 
advance their common interests.ãã
