Erdogan accuses Israel of terrorism, vows to stand with the oppressed


Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan accused Israel of "practicing state terrorism," stressing that his country will continue to stand with the oppressed.


In a press conference held by the Turkish President on the sidelines of his participation in the G20 summit in Brazil, Erdogan said that "the human cost of state terrorism practiced by Israel in the region with the support of Western powers is increasing day by day."


He added that "the world has not yet taken the position we were waiting for against Israel's injustice," stressing that Turkey will continue this struggle in cooperation with its friends, stressing that Turkey will continue to stand by the oppressed even if it remains alone in this.


The Turkish President stressed that "his country's problem is with those who are dragging the region into chaos and instability through the policy of occupation and invasion."


He pointed out that as a result of Türkiye's initiative, strong phrases regarding Gaza were included in the G20 leaders' declaration.


He stressed the importance of more countries recognizing the State of Palestine during this period.


He pointed out that "history will not forgive those who remain silent, under any pretext, regarding this violence and this escalating pace of brutality."


Erdogan explained that "the UN Security Council has turned into an elite structure that serves the interests of only 5 permanent members instead of protecting the rights of 193 UN member states."


He expressed his hope that the new US administration would take bolder, wiser and more supportive steps towards peace.


Regarding Russia's updating of its nuclear doctrine, Erdogan said, "We cannot say that a war in which nuclear weapons are used has a positive side."


"We hope to reach a final ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine as soon as possible and provide the peace the world is waiting for," he added.
