I spent years urging Israel to apology to Turkey, Hillary Clinton says

U.S. presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said Wednesday that she has spent years trying to get Israeli to apologize to Turkey for a deadly attack on a aid flotilla to Gaza.

"We lost what was not just a working relationship but a real bridge," Clinton said. "I spent, you know, literally years trying to get the Israelis to finally apologize to the Turks on the flotilla."

She said she spoke to strategists such as Henry Kissinger to help her present a strategic argument to convince Israel that it should apologize to the Turks as soon as possible so that relations with Turkey could resume.

Clinton's comments came during a discussion at the Brooking Institution where she responded to a question of whether the U.S. could lead a partnership between Israel and Arab states, or other U.S. allies.
