ISTANBUL (AA) - Musician and composer Roger Waters, co-founder of the English rock band Pink Floyd, expressed gratitude to Türkiye for its position on the Palestine issue.
“No Sir (Turkish President Recep Tayyip) Erdogan, it is we who should thank you and the people of Turkey for standing as a lone voice in the West against the genocide of our brothers and sisters in Palestine,” Waters said in a post on X.
He also praised a recent video shared by the Turkish presidency, saying: “The film you made is brilliant, compassionate, and beautiful. It will be remembered in 2040."
Earlier, President Erdogan thanked Waters for sharing a video posted by Türkiye's Communications Directorate on his social media account.
The video on the first anniversary of Israel’s attacks in Palestine imagines a future in which the Gaza genocide is globally acknowledged, with museums and films commemorating it. In the video, children ask their grandparents: “What were you doing during the genocide, grandpa?”
