Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's recent mediation efforts on the issue of Golan heights between Syria and Israel highly echoed in Israeli media. An Israeli newspaper wrote that Erdogan's next step would be gathering the two parties in Turkey to determine main outlines of a possible agreement. Saying that Turkey is in search of a compromise formula on the issue and stressing Erdogan's determination to reach an agreement, another newspaper wrote that Erdogan would send his top adviser for foreign policy Ahmet Davutoglu to Tel Aviv to inform Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert of his recent talks with Syrian President Bessar Assad in Damascus. According to that newspaper, Davutoglu will forward Assad's message to Olmert and will try to convince the two parties to begin direct talks. After his Syria visit, Erdogan yesterday confirmed that he would send a representative to Tel Aviv but didn't give exact information. Assad yesterday told Qatar's al Watan newspaper that If Erdogan's efforts yield a positive outcome, possible direct talks with Israel should be held under the auspices of the US.
