Erdogan says no point discussing Trump’s ‘futile’ plan for Gaza, as it won’t happen
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleTurkish President Tayyip Erdogan says that there is no point in discussing what US President Donald Trump has said about a plan to take over the war-ravaged Gaza Strip.
“From our perspective, there is nothing worth talking about the proposals brought up by the new US administration regarding Gaza under the pressure of the Zionist lobby,” Erdogan says in a news conference, suggesting that Israel was behind Trump’s proposal.
“This plan is completely futile…No one has the power to remove the people of Gaza from their homeland. The people of Gaza will continue to stay in Gaza, live in Gaza and protect Gaza,” he says.
