Turkish president Erdogan advocates for Islamic unity and security collaboration in response to perceived Israeli threats
In a powerful speech at the United Nations General Assembly, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to Nazi leader Adolf Hitler, likening the rulers of Israel to a network of murderers who have evolved their radical views into a fascist ideology.
Erdogan expects the issue of Israeli aggression to dominate the UN General Assembly later this month. He stressed the need to take all legitimate and efficient measures to stop Israel's inhumane actions against the Palestinian people.
The Turkish President advocated for the recognition of the State of Palestine, also known as the 'two-state solution', as key to achieving peace in the region and ending Israel's aggression. He believes that recent votes at the UN indicate Israel is being isolated and his two-state solution proposal is now becoming the joint will of the global majority.
Erdogan condemned Israel's attack on the Palestinian group Hamas' political office in Doha and expressed concern about Israel's banditry in the region, mentioning attacks on Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, and Iran. He emphasized that Israel harms not only Muslims and Christians but also Jews.
The declaration at the summit underlined that Israel's attack is indeed an attack against all Muslim states. Leaders at the summit warned that Israel's attacks on Qatar had dangerous consequences for the region. Erdogan urged collective action to counter Israeli attempts to impose a new reality on the Middle East.
Turkey, as a major supporter of the Palestinian cause, is reportedly worried that Israel may target it next. Erdogan hailed the large number of leaders attending the summit and strongly displayed the Islamic world's common will against Israeli aggression and for solidarity with Qatar.
Erdogan called for more cooperation in the Islamic world, particularly in security. Several Islamic states have declared their intention to cooperate on security, information sharing, and crisis management among themselves; however, specific countries and details about which head of state has previously supported this initiative are not provided in the search results available.
The New York Declaration at the U.N. General Assembly, which was approved by 142 countries, was a turning point in diplomatic balance on the matter of Palestine, according to Erdogan. He hopes for expansion of the 'humanity front' during the upcoming session of the assembly.
