以色列土耳其邦交正常化

Israel and Turkey have reached a deal to normalize ties.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday after meeting in Rome with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, "I think it's an important step here to normalize relations."

Ties between the two countries broke down in 2010 over Israel's interception of a Turkish aid ship bound for Gaza which was under a blockade because of the Hamas militant group's leadership there.

A senior Israeli official said that as part of the restoration of normalized ties, Israel has apologized for its lethal raid on the ship and agreed to pay $20 million to the bereaved and injured. Also under the deal, the two countries will restore their ambassadors.

A senior Turkish official said the agreement also provides for Turkey to deliver humanitarian aid and other non-military products to Gaza and engage in infrastructure projects, including the construction of residential buildings and the completion of a hospital.以色列和土耳其達成邦交正常化協議。

以色列總理內塔尼亞胡星期日在羅馬會見美國國務卿克里後表示，他認爲這是朝着邦交正常化邁出的重要一步。

2010年，以色塊攔截一艘運載救援物資駛往加沙地帶的土耳其貨船，導致兩國關係破裂。當時加沙地帶由於在哈馬斯控制下而遭到封鎖。

一名以色列高層官員說，作爲恢復正常邦交努力的一部分，以色列已爲襲擊土耳其貨船道歉，並同意爲死傷者賠償2000萬美元。按照協議，以土兩國將彼此重開大使館。

一名土耳其高層官員說，協議還規定土耳其可以向加沙地帶運送人道救援和其他非軍事物資，並參與當地的基礎建設項目，包括建造居民樓和一家醫院。
