Speaking at the “Mawlid al-Nabi Week” Event, President Erdoğan said: “Israel’s current war-obsessed government is resorting to every kind of provocations to destabilize the entire region, starting from its neighbors. The radical, occupying and genocidal ideology known as Zionism not only threatens the peace of its neighbors, but also targets everyone who defends regional peace and humanitarian values.”
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan delivered a speech at the “Mawlid al-Nabi Week” Event in Istanbul.
“Israel’s war-obsessed government is resorting to every kind of provocations to destabilize the entire region”
Stressing that the majority of the regions, extending from Palestine to Lebanon to Sudan to Somalia, which are near and dear to our hearts, have been grappling with wars, crises and instability for years, President Erdoğan stated: “Innocent kids, unaware of anything, are being targeted in broad daylight. Babies and children are falling to the soil like green crops without getting to know the world, without any clue as to what is going on. Women, the elderly, healthcare professionals and aid workers are being massacred not in conflict zones but in civilian settlements.”
Underscoring that even kites are considered a threat and prevented in Gaza, which the genocidal network has turned into the world’s largest graveyard of children, President Erdoğan went onto say: “Our brothers and sisters numbering millions in Palestine alone are currently struggling to survive under the harshest of circumstance, devoid of even the most basic staples. Likewise, 1.3 million of our brothers and sisters in Lebanon have been forcefully displaced from their homes due to the Israeli administration’s attacks, as over 4 thousand people have been killed and over 12 thousand Lebanese, mostly children and women, wounded. Israel’s current war-obsessed government is resorting to every kind of provocations to destabilize the entire region, starting from its neighbors. The radical, occupying and genocidal ideology known as Zionism not only threatens the peace of its neighbors, but also targets everyone who defends regional peace and humanitarian values. As we draw attention to Zionism’s expansionist ambitions, we do so not for ourselves, but on behalf of all the peoples of the region, regardless of their faith, and on behalf of humanity.”
