Israel's approach, which ignores the basic rights of the Palestinian people, threatens his own people, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said.

“Of course, the inability of the international community to fulfill its promises to the Palestinians plays a very serious role in deepening the problems. Since 1949, we have recognized the State of Israel and maintained diplomatic relations with it, although sometimes they were interrupted for short periods.

We believe that without the creation of an independent sovereign Palestinian state with its capital in Jerusalem within the 1967 borders, there will be no peace in the region. It is obvious that the problem in the region cannot be solved by constantly oppressing the Palestinian people and confiscating their homes and lands. This approach will lead to disappointment in the search for peace,” Erdogan said in his address to the nation after a cabinet meeting.

According to him, Israel's approach, which ignores the basic rights of the Palestinian people, threatens its own people, as seen in the latest incident.

“We also oppose random attacks against Israeli civilians. The destruction of Gaza, the bombings of mosques and the deaths of civilians are unacceptable. War also has its own customs and morals. All parties are obliged to comply with them,” the Turkish leader emphasized.
