Turkey Shifts Away From US, Deepens Russia Ties Amid Israel Tensions

Turkey has dumped most of its US Treasury holdings, deepened its nuclear energy partnership with Russia, and rolled out aggressive tax incentives to attract capital—while Israeli political figures now openly describe Turkey as an enemy state amid tensions over Gaza. This realignment of a NATO member against Israel and toward Russia, alongside rhetoric of restoring Ottoman-era regional dominance, reflects the kind of shifting alliances and rising Middle East hostility Scripture describes preceding the end times. Ezekiel 38 depicts a northern coalition, potentially including Turkey (Gomer/Togarmah), aligning against Israel in the last days.
