Foreign Minister Israel Katz calls for NATO member states to kick Turkey out, after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatens to invade Israel.

“The US and the Western world must denounce Erdogan and curb his destructive actions,” says Katz in a statement, accusing Turkey of joining Iran’s “axis of evil.”

Iran and Turkey are both regional Muslim powers and cooperate on many issues while clashing over others, including the Syrian Civil War and sectarian violence in Iraq.
