"It has a strong potential to turn into a Middle East war, including Lebanon, Syria and Yemen"
Evaluating the United States Secretary of State Antony Blinken's first visit to Turkiye on January 6 and his meetings within the scope of the Middle East tour, Asst. Prof. Dr. Ali Semin: "The main theme of Blinken's visit to Arab countries can be evaluated as initiatives to prevent the conflicts in Gaza from turning into a possible war in the regional context. Because the spread of the Gaza conflict to the entire Middle East and its transformation into a regional war is not in the interests of the US or western countries. Although it is seen as a remote possibility that the Gaza war will spread to the whole region in the short term, it is strong that it will turn into a potential Middle East wars, especially in Lebanon, Syria and Yemen in the medium term."
