Ali Balci, analitičar na Univerzitetu Sakarya, slaže se s tim da će, ukoliko se Izrael ne ispriča za flotilu u Gazi, Turska "pokušati riješiti probleme poput PKK, Sirije i drugih, bez oslanjanja na Izrael".
Ali Balci, an analyst at the Sakarya University, agrees that unless Israel apologises for the Gaza flotilla, Turkey "will try to solve problems, such as the PKK, Syria and others by not relying on Israel".
