Türkiye Condemns Israeli Parliament’s Resolution Rejecting Palestinian State
Ankara, The Gulf Observer: Türkiye has strongly condemned the passing of a resolution in the Israeli parliament that rejects the establishment of a Palestinian state, calling it a blatant disregard for international law.
“The acceptance of a resolution in the Israeli parliament rejecting the establishment of a Palestinian state is another indication that Israel disregards international law and agreements,” the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Thursday, labeling the decision as “null and void.”
The ministry also condemned the provocation by Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who forced his way into Al Aqsa Mosque under the protection of Israeli security forces on Thursday morning.
“Israel must put an end to such actions that will further increase tensions in the region,” the statement added.
The Turkish Foreign Ministry reiterated that the establishment of an independent, sovereign Palestinian state within the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, is a requirement of international law.
