Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said tonight (Tuesday) at a press conference with Serbian President that President Yitzhak Herzog may visit Turkey soon.
Erdogan said this a few hours after he once again expressed a desire to improve relations with Israel and even suggested transferring Israeli gas to Europe through Turkish territory.
The president's house declined to comment on Erdogan's remarks.
However, a senior Israeli official stressed that Erdogan told Herzog in the latest phone call between them that he would be happy if he visited Turkey.
According to the senior official, no date has yet been set for such a visit.
In any case, the senior official clarified, there will be no harm to Israel's strategic relations with Greece and Cyprus.

Erdogan has been courting Israel in recent months and uses Herzog as the main channel of communication.
The two talked for about 40 minutes immediately after Herzog took office.
Erdogan called Herzog again a few days ago to comfort him about his mother's death.
Erdogan said in a conversation that he understands the pain of losing a mother.
In Greece and Cyprus, Erdogan's attempts to get closer to Israel are very worried and fear that this will come at their expense.
In the last decade, against the background of the cooling of relations with Turkey, Israel has built a strategic relationship with these two countries, which is also a strained relationship with Ankara.
