‘We’ve reached limit of words’: Turkish FM calls for sanctions against Israel

Turkey’s foreign minister calls for sanctions against Israel, urging the international community to cut all support over the conflict in the Middle East.

“We have reached the limit of words, diplomacy and international politics. We must start with sanctions,” Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan tells ruling party delegates at a meeting about Palestine, adding: “Israel needs to be boycotted.”

While Turkey has been one of Israel’s biggest critics throughout the war and even announced a trade ban, it has reportedly maintained economic ties with Jerusalem through a series of covert maneuvers.
