Erdogan: Hamas is a liberation movement/ I will meet with Haniyeh.
According to Arabic website 21, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan emphasized in a speech today: The Hamas movement is like the national liberation movement that saved Anatolia from occupation before the establishment of the Republic of Turkey.
He added: The occupying regime in Gaza and the West Bank is carrying out ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.
Turkish President added: I will continue to defend the cause of Palestine and as long as I am alive, even if I am alone, I will be the voice of the oppressed Palestinians.
He added: Hamas is not a terrorist movement, but a resistance movement to liberate its land.
At the end, Erdoğan emphasized: “I will soon host Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the political bureau of Hamas.”
