Organization of the Turkic States

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has described Israel as a threat to the global system and called on the Turkic states to raise pressure on it.

"It is extremely important for us, the Turkic world, to maintain our efforts for a lasting and fair solution of the Palestinian issue," Erdoğan said at a press conference with Kyrgyzstan President Sadyr Japarov on Nov. 5 in Bishkek.

Türkiye will never abandon Palestinians and protecting them in Gaza from the Israeli atrocities is its obligation, President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has said.

"We have never left our brothers in Gaza unprotected, helpless and alone, and we never will," Erdoğan said in his address during a visit to the Black Sea coastal town of Rize on Nov. 5.

The statements and "accusations" in the International Election Observation Mission (IEOM) report for May 14 polls "exceed the framework of the election process and disregard the principles of independent and impartial observation are regrettable," the Foreign Ministry said on May 16.
