Erdogan calls for UN coercive measures against Israel for stalling ceasefire
Turkey's President Erdogan criticized the UN and Israel's allies for their support of Israel, calling for justice and a ceasefire in Gaza.
President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdogan slammed the UN for its response to the war in Gaza, leading him to compare Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the dictator of Nazi Germany.
In his remarks to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday morning, Erdoğan slammed the UN for allowing international justice to be left to the five members of the security council, saying the war in Gaza is the most dramatic example.
“Seventy years ago, just as Hitler was stopped by an alliance of humanity, Netanyahu and his murder network must be stopped by an alliance of humanity,” Erdogan said in his remarks to the UN General Assembly on Tuesday morning.Erdogan called for coercive measures against Israel in the absence of the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2735, the ceasefire proposal announced in May by US President Joe Biden, as he said Israel’s behavior has once again demonstrated that it is “imperative for the international community to develop a protection mechanism for Palestinians.” He condemned the UN for allowing international justice to be left to the five members of the Security Council, saying the war in Gaza is the most dramatic example.Erdogan said he believes the General Assembly’s authority to recommend the use of force, as in the 1950 resolution on unity for peace, should be considered in this process.
During this time, an “immediate and a permanent ceasefire must be established, hostages and prisoners must be exchanged, and humanitarian aid must be delivered to Gaza unhindered and uninterrupted,” Erdogan said, in his only acknowledgment of the hostages.
Erdogan also blasted Israel’s allies for supporting the country in an “unconditional manner.”
Erdogan demands accountability
“How long are you going to be able to carry the shame of witnessing this massacre, dear friends, while children are dying in Gaza, in Ramallah, in Lebanon, while babies are dying in incubators?” he said.Erdogan said the only reason for Israel’s aggression against the Palestinian people is the unconditional support of a group of countries.
