“Given the grave statements coming from Turkey, I have ordered the return of diplomatic representatives there in order to conduct a reevaluation of the relations between Israel and Turkey,” Eli Cohen, Israeli foreign minister wrote in a post on his X account on Saturday afternoon, shortly after the President of Turkey said that his country will try to introduce Israeli regime as a war criminal on the international stage.
Speaking at “Great Palestine Meeting,” a pro-Palestine rally in Istanbul, Erdogan said, “Israel, we will also declare you as a war criminal to the world, we are preparing for it, and we will introduce Israel to the world as a war criminal.”
Erdogan stressed that the Western world mobilized its politicians, and media to legitimize the massacre of the innocent people in Gaza, adding: “Israel is committing war crimes.”
He said Israel is an “occupier,” adding, “West owes you, but Turkey does not owe you.”
