Erdogan says going forward, Turkey won’t approve NATO cooperation with Israel
Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan says NATO cannot be allowed to continue its partnership with the Israeli administration.
“Until comprehensive, sustainable peace is established in Palestine, attempts at cooperation with Israel within NATO will not be approved by Turkey,” Erdogan says at a news conference at the NATO summit.
Turkey also continues its diplomatic efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine war, he says.
Erdogan adds that he has instructed Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan to meet Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to begin restoring relations with Syria.
Regarding F-16 sales to Turkey, Erdogan says: “I talked to Mr. Biden. ‘I will solve this problem in 3-4 weeks’ he said.”
