ArmInfo. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, continuing to presenting himself as the defender of the "oppressed peoples of the East", criticized the US President, accusing him of protecting Jews and Armenians.
Thus, in a televised address following the meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Turkish Republic, Erdogan noted that Turkey calls on the UN, the UN Security Council, the OIC and other international organizations to take active steps to protect the Palestinians and Jerusalem.
The Turkish leader came up with an initiative to transfer the capital of the State of Israel under the control of an interfaith commission consisting of representatives of the Muslim, Jewish and Christian communities, which, in his opinion, could make a significant contribution to resolving the crisis. He is also convinced that the fastest and most effective way to prevent the threat in the current situation is to grant Jerusalem the new governance status proposed by the Turkish side.
Erdogan also stressed that Turkey is ready to provide political and military support to international efforts to "liberate Jerusalem and protect the Palestinian people."
President Erdogan also sharply criticized the Austrian authorities for raising the Israeli flag over the country's government building against the backdrop of recent events in the Gaza Strip. "It seems that the Austrian state is trying to force Muslims to pay for the genocide, which it committed against the Jews. And other countries that support Israel's actions in Jerusalem and the Gaza Strip will go down in history with the black spot of this crime against humanity, which they committed by becoming complicit in child killers,"- warned the head of the Turkish state, while calling Israel" a terrorist state that infringes on the inviolability of Jerusalem, ruthlessly bombing civilians in Gaza. "
The Turkish leader stated that: "the recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel by the United States, and after them by a number of other countries, increased the appetite of this deadly state for the shedding of blood. "
President Erdogan also criticized his American counterpart Joe Biden for Washington's conclusion of an arms deal with Israel. "Mr. Biden, you sided with the Armenians in the issue of the so-called Armenian Genocide. Now, unfortunately, with your bloody hands, you are writing the history of these events associated with serious disproportionate attacks on Gaza, which led to the martyrdom of hundreds of thousands of people," Erdogan said.
