Turkish cabinet to convene, focus on Syria crisis and economy

The Turkish Presidential Cabinet is scheduled to convene today under the chairmanship of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
The meeting, set to begin at 3:00 PM, will focus on several key issues, including the evolving situation in Syria, the ongoing threat posed by the PKK/YPG, and the state of the Turkish economy.
A primary topic of discussion will be the potential political developments in Syria following the recent ousting of Bashar al-Assad. The Cabinet is expected to assess the implications of this significant event and discuss Türkiye's role in shaping the future of the region.
The PKK/YPG's activities in Syria, particularly in northern and eastern regions, will also be a key agenda item. The Cabinet is likely to deliberate on strategies to counter the group's influence and protect Türkiye's national security interests.
Economic issues, including inflation, unemployment, and growth, will also be on the table. The Cabinet may discuss measures to mitigate economic challenges and stimulate growth.
In addition, the recent Israeli attacks on Gaza will be addressed. The Cabinet is expected to express solidarity with the Palestinian people and discuss potential diplomatic efforts to address the ongoing conflict.
Following the Cabinet meeting, President Erdoğan is scheduled to deliver a televised address to the nation, outlining the government's plans and policies. (ILKHA)
