Erdoğan: Israel will not survive for 3 days without the support of the West.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan stated that Israel is an occupying group in the public rally in support of the Palestinian people and the anniversary of the Republic of Turkey, which was held this Saturday at Atatürk Airport. We speak easily. I said that Hamas is not a terrorist group and Israel was very upset by my words. In fact, we expected this reaction as well.
He added: There are some politicians inside the country who unfortunately left Hamas to Netanyahu and said that Hamas is a terrorist group. Those who voted for these people should think carefully. A century ago, Gaza was a part of our land and we have 53 martyrs from Gaza in the Battle of Chanak Qala.
The Turkish president criticized the West for being very upset about the war in Ukraine, but they have no reaction about Gaza, and said: O West, are you looking for a new crusade? We are the same in the Middle East as we were in Libya and Karabakh. We have seen a lot of hypocrisy and double standards from you against the PKK.
Erdoğan added: We followed the fight against terror for the past 10 years, and with the slogan that we can come suddenly one night, we will follow the path we chose and went ahead.
Stating that America and Europe are the most responsible for the massacre in Gaza, he said: Everything that happens in Gaza is the result of the West. Israel cannot take any step without the support of the West and without their support it will collapse within 3 days.
The President of Turkey stated that the West and Israel are behind the PKK, YPG, and Gülen group and stated: We know this very well.
Erdogan added: Israel has been committing war crimes in Gaza for 22 days and we will show it to the world as a war criminal. How many children, women, and the elderly must be killed for the West to declare a ceasefire?
