Fidan: Ongoing Tensions Between Iran and Israel Threaten Regional Stability
According to the english section of webangah News Agency, citing Mehr News Agency and Al Jazeera, turkey’s Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated that Israel is committing a crime against humanity against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Fidan emphasized that Tel Aviv continues its plans to occupy all Palestinian territories in gaza. He added that Israel, backed by unlimited U.S. support, aims to dismantle the two-state solution.
The minister criticized the international community’s failure to assume obligation for halting Israeli regime crimes. Recent developments indicate Tel Aviv intends full occupation of Palestinian lands.
Referring to Israel’s brutal starvation policy against Gaza residents designed to force them from their land, Fidan said ongoing efforts with Qatar and Egypt aim at finding a fundamental resolution for the Palestinian issue.
He declared that Tel Aviv’s objective is clear: making Gaza uninhabitable so people will be compelled to migrate.
Fidan condemned extremist Israeli ministers and settlers whose raids on al-Aqsa Mosque escalate tensions. he stressed that Israeli authorities disregard international law entirely.
The foreign minister asserted that Israel opposes forming a new strong Syrian government but vowed Turkey will not allow such policies to continue.
He announced Turkey’s decision to fully cut economic and trade relations with Israel and close its airspace to Israeli planes.
Highlighting ongoing tensions between Israel and Iran as threats to regional security and stability, Fidan warned that Tel Aviv seeks chaos across all countries in the region.
The Turkish foreign minister also noted that blocking humanitarian aid into Gaza has led directly to thousands of Palestinian deaths through enforced starvation policies. He said Israeli aggression now extends beyond Gaza into Jerusalem, the West Bank, Syria, Iran, and Lebanon as well.
