Despite past hesitation to avoid upsetting Ankara, Israel now aligns with global leaders like the U.S., framing it as a moral obligation. The move, driven by Foreign Minister Gideon Saar, reflects a fractured relationship with Turkey, which has long denied the genocide and accused Israel of political opportunism. While Parliament still must approve, this cabinet decision marks a pivotal moment in Israel’s foreign policy and historical reckoning.
