ALBAWABA - In Ankara, Turkey, Erdogan mercilessly lambasted Israel's actions and declared it a deadly threat to regional stability. He urged regional governments to purge their institutions of foreign-backed traitors, referring to Türkiye's past experiences with internal threats.
Erdogan passionately backed Iran's right to self-defense during the current Israeli-Iranian conflict, denouncing Israeli aggression and Western complicity. "We face a state with no principles, no rules, and no regard for law," he declared.
The Turkish President pledged that Türkiye is strengthening its defense capabilities, embracing full deterrence. "Soon, even the thought of attacking Türkiye will send shivers down their spines," he warned.
He censured erstwhile allies, implying Israel and its supporters, for once siding with Israel and demonizing Hamas. Without directly naming names, he observed, "We govern a mighty nation - the Republic of Türkiye. Our decisions are not guided by cheap rhetoric but by the wisdom of ages."
