ANKARA, June 18 (Xinhua) — Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday said he supports Iran’s right to self-defense in the conflict with Israel.
Addressing his party members in parliament, he noted that “it is legitimate and lawful for Iran to defend itself against the banditry and state terrorism of Israel.”
“We are doing everything in our power to stop this inhuman aggression not only against Gaza, but also against Syria, Lebanon, Yemen and our neighbor Iran. The end of Israeli aggression is necessary for all humanity,” the Turkish leader emphasized.
R.T. Erdogan added that Turkey is preparing for possible problems and different scenarios due to the ongoing Israeli-Iranian conflict. “All our institutions are on high alert due to the possible consequences of these attacks on Turkey,” the president said. –0–
