Middle East
expert Veysel Ayhan says that Israel will be the biggest loser of the
popular revolutions in Arab countries, predicting that this process will
eventually lead to the establishment of an independent Palestinian
state.  

Ayhan, a lecturer and associate
professor at Abant İzzet Baysal University and a Middle Eastern expert
in the Middle East Strategic Research Center (ORSAM), told Today's Zaman
in an interview that the popular uprisings in the Middle East will grow
big enough to engulf all countries without exception.

For him, the biggest risk for the world would be chaos in Saudi
Arabia. “If the crisis in Saudi Arabia lasts longer, there will be
abnormal hikes in world oil prices. That is, the events in Jeddah will
affect the lives of people in London and New York. The main threat for
Saudi Arabia will be the Shiites,” he argued.

He also claimed that if Turkey takes constitutional reforms and the
democratic initiative processes to successful completion, it has the
chance of being a star in the region.
