Abbas courts Erdogan foes
Mahmoud Abbas is strengthening ties with Greece and Cyprus to broaden international support for the Palestinian Authority, reinforce its legitimacy and standing as the Palestinians’ official representative, and secure economic assistance and support for Gaza’s reconstruction. An analysis cited by *Maariv* suggests that Cyprus’s ties with Israel could open channels for political communication. Ankara is avoiding strong criticism of the rapprochement, fearing it could damage its relations with the internationally recognized Palestinian leadership and diminish its influence, as it seeks to maintain ties with both the Palestinian Authority and Hamas.
