ISTANBUL (AA) – Türkiye’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday said attempts to exile people of Gaza from their lands are “null and void.”
Erdogan said forced depopulation of Gaza is “unacceptable,” during a news conference with his Egyptian counterpart Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
“It is our priority to establish a cease-fire as soon as possible to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza without any obstacles,” he said.
He also added that Türkiye will continue to cooperate and stand in solidarity with its “Egyptian brothers” to stop bloodshed in Gaza.
Last July, Türkiye and Egypt raised their diplomatic ties and appointed ambassadors.
Ties between the two countries had been at the level of charges d'affaires since 2013.
