In his speech at the 74th UN General Assembly yesterday, Erdoğan made the following remarks on Israel and Palestine:
"Today, one of the places with the most injustice is the land of Palestine under the occupation of Israel. I am wondering: Where is Israel? Where does the territory of Israel cover? Where was it in 1947? Where was it in 1949-1967? And where is Israel today? Does the UN implement the decisions taken about Israel? Then, what good does the UN do? Our stance as Turkey is clear: The solution is to establish the state of Palestine based on the 1947 agreement and with East Jerusalem its capital city.
"I am asking from the rostrum of the UN: Where are the borders of the state of Israel? Are they the borders of 1948? Are they the borders of 1967? Or, does it have any other borders? Is it the objective of the deal called 'Deal of the Century' to completely sweep away Palestine? Do they want to drench the whole world in blood?" (AÖ/SD)
