A country whose leader acts toward Israel like Erdrogan does pretty much forfeits their right to get to the negotiating table with Israel on behalf of another party.
Did he actually do anything (such as, oh, I dunno, boarding some Israeli-flagged ships in international waters and killing eight Israeli citizens), or is this just about him pulling a Godwin? RTE is a first-class a-hole, but if we shut people out of diplomacy simply for being first-class assholes there wouldn't be much of a point to it. KJI calls us Hitler on the reg and claims we are subhuman scum who will perish in nuclear fire to boot, and somehow we negotiate with him.

Him pulling a Godwin, him sending that flotilla to Israel and then calling for the Hague to investigate, etc., all disqualify him from being at the table.

Qatar has a better argument for being involved because they may support Hamas but don't have a history of getting into direct pissing matches with Israel like Turkey does.
