Allegations from Israeli-linked circles regarding Turkey-Azerbaijan relations

It has been reported that Israel-based think tanks, academics, and media outlets are conducting a black propaganda campaign aimed at disrupting relations between Turkey and Azerbaijan, advancing claims that Turkey is imposing a governance model and ideological pressure on Azerbaijan.

Israel-based think tanks, academics, and media outlets engaged in activities targeting public opinion by pushing the claim that Turkey is imposing a governance model on Azerbaijan. It was reported that the rhetoric of the Zionist lobby found a place in certain social media channels.

Roman Gurevich, an Israeli political scientist and honorary ambassador of the Jewish Agency Sokhnut to Azerbaijan, stigmatized circles objecting to the headscarf ban in Turkey and called on Baku to respond to these groups. Gallia Lindenstrauss, an expert at the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS), along with journalist Emil Shleymovich, Israel Hayom reporter Neta Bar, and the newspaper Makor Rishon, also voiced claims in their news reports and analyses that Turkey is creating a radicalizing influence or exerting pressure on Azerbaijan.

Additionally, researcher Joseph Epstein and the BESA PSCRP program within Bar-Ilan University accused Turkey of exerting pressure on the secular order of the Turkic world.
