Moscow, June 18 – Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan condemned Israel's attacks in the Middle East on Wednesday and asserted that Prime Minister of the Hebrew country Benjamin Netanyahu has far surpassed the atrocities of Adolf Hitler.
In a speech at the Turkish National Assembly, Erdogan stressed that the images of what is happening in the Gaza Strip are "horrible, painful, inhumane, and unacceptable." "Netanyahu has already far surpassed the tyrant Hitler in the crime of genocide," the president declared.
Erdogan also condemned Israel's attacks in other countries in the region, such as Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and, most recently, Iran, expressing his support for the Persian nation. "It is Iran's natural and legitimate right to defend itself against this Israeli banditry, this state terrorism," he affirmed.
"Iran has been openly attacked by a country that recognizes neither law nor norms, is devoid of principles, is indulged, pampered, and furious [...] The blood of massacred civilians, of murdered babies and children, also splashes the hands of those who remain silent, as well as those who support Israel's arrogance, and that bloodstain will never be erased," the Turkish leader asserted.
Since the early hours of June 13, when Israel launched an unprovoked attack on Iran, the two nations have been exchanging bombardments. Russia, China, and numerous countries around the world have strongly condemned the Israeli offensive, calling it a grave violation of international law and the UN Charter.
Russian President Vladimir Putin condemned these attacks in a conversation with his US counterpart, Donald Trump, and expressed grave concern about a possible escalation of the conflict, which "would have unforeseeable consequences for the entire situation in the Middle East region." Likewise, Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzia, warned that Israel's actions are pushing the region toward a "large-scale nuclear catastrophe."
In a statement, the Russian Foreign Ministry indicated that Israeli attacks on Iran's peaceful nuclear facilities are illegal and are pushing the world toward a nuclear catastrophe.
In Latin America, several nations, including Brazil, Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua, expressed their rejection of Tel Aviv's actions. Countries in the Islamic world, such as Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Pakistan, have reacted similarly. (Text and photo: RT)
