Erdogan at UN: Palestine is ‘the gaping wound of the world’

Speaking at the UN General Assembly, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan calls on the international community “to support our Palestinian brothers in the West Bank and Gaza in their struggle for unified Palestinian state.”

“The continuation of the peace process can only be possible of Israel immediately stops settlement activity and takes steps toward a two-state solution,” he says.

Palestine is “the gaping wound of the world,” he says, saying that steps must be taken to prevent further crisis on the Temple Mount.
