Turkey’s parliament announces boycott of companies that support Israel
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleTurkey’s parliament has announced it’s boycotting companies that support Israel, saying their products won’t be sold in any of its restaurants, cafeterias or teahouses.
According to a statement from the Turkish Grand National Assembly, the decision has been made by parliament speaker Numan Kurtulus in support of the “public sensitivities” toward the sale of products from companies that have allegedly “openly declared their support to Israel’s war crimes.”
The statement does not name any of the companies being shunned.
Last week, Turkey recalled its ambassador to Israel for consultations despite recent efforts to normalize ties, as it consolidates its ties with the Hamas terror group despite its murderous October 7 massacres in Israel.
