​​​​​​​Arab-Turkish relations.. Will they succeed with continued Turkish occupation areas  of Syria and Iraq

 Commenting on Turkey's efforts to reform its relations with its international and regional surroundings and with a number of Arab countries, especially the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Egypt, researcher Muhammad Rabie Al-Daihi said that "Arab relations (with Turkey) are contingent on Turkey's commitment to positions that do not harm Arab national security."

 This comes at a time when Turkey is increasingly violating the lands of Syria and Iraq, as it occupies large areas of the lands of the two member states of the League of Arab States, and continues to launch attacks and attempt to occupy more lands in the two countries.

 Turkey also pursues a policy of demographic change and Turkification in the areas it occupies in Syria and Iraq, which threatens the original identity of the occupied areas, while many quarters criticize the positions of Arab countries, which observers see as not up to the required level in the face of Turkish plans.

 Recently, Turkish efforts have emerged to restore Arab-Turkish relations to normal after they had been badly damaged in recent years with the exposure of the Turkish scheme based on supporting the Muslim Brotherhood to dominate the Arab countries, as the Turkish President visited the UAE and Saudi Arabia, and steps were taken to restore relations with Egypt.  .

 Many wonder if this is possible at a time when Turkey is violating the sovereignty of Syria and Iraq and still maintains its expansionist intentions and continues to interfere in Arab affairs.

 Several obstacles to the return of relations to normal

 Egyptian researcher Mohamed Rabie Al-Daihi said in an exclusive statement to our agency that "the idea of ​​Turkish-Arab relations has many problems and obstacles, perhaps Iraq and Syria are one of these challenges, in addition to interfering in Libyan affairs and other matters. The most important point that may hinder these relations is the lack of commitment to  The Turkish side supports Arab demands, which are largely represented in stopping interference in the internal affairs of Arab countries, including the occupation of lands in northern Syria and Iraq.

 He recalled the statements of Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry to "many foreign websites," in which he said that "relations with the Turkish side will return when Turkey stops interfering in Arab affairs, and that it presents indications about this matter through its actual cessation of support for some elements that may threaten or undermine  Arab national security to a large extent.

He believes that the Turkish threat to northern Syria will continue during the coming period, "but Turkey will not dare to carry out a comprehensive operation in northern Syria, as happened in 2019".  This is because the matter "is fraught with many positions of the international powers, not only the positions of the Arab countries."

 He added, "The most important thing is the great loss of the Turkish regime at home. The Turkish regime is suffering economically, and the Turkish street views the current government as having exhausted the people economically, politically and militarily, and has damaged Turkey's reputation in its international and regional context with the idea of ​​entering a war."

 Concerning the Arab position, Muhammad Rabi’ al-Daihi says, “The Arab countries are still defining a clear position on cooperation with Turkey, which is non-interference in the internal affairs of Arab countries, or in a more precise sense, Turkey’s cessation of interfering in the affairs of its neighboring and non-neighbouring Arab countries, either with the support of rejected groups.  Popular and Arab, and it has a historical record with terrorism or direct intervention in a number of files, such as what happened in Syria and Iraq.

 The Egyptian researcher stressed that the return of "Turkey's relationship with the Arab countries and Turkey's exit from its isolation depends, more precisely, on the need for it to stop interfering in Arab affairs."

 Al-Daihi added, "Turkey has ambitions to expand and restore the old Ottoman legacy, which means that the ambition of the leadership in Turkey is to expand in all Arab countries, but the axis of Arab powers led by Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE was very firm in this matter," referring to stopping the intervention.  Turkish in Libya.

 He said: "The axis of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE faced Turkey in international forums and discourses." He referred to the red line Sirte-Al-Jufra that Cairo had drawn in front of the mercenaries supported by Turkey, and that without it, the mercenaries would now be on the borders of the Egyptian state and expanded greatly in Libya and ended in an unfortunate fate.

 The Egyptian researcher in international relations, Muhammad Rabei al-Daihi, explained that "the policy of Arab confrontation made it in a big way isolated in its regional and international surroundings, and there may have been descriptions that came out of some as a rogue state violating international law."
