The Turkish Foreign Ministry condemned the statements of the Israeli Foreign Minister, Yisrael Katz, regarding Turkey and its President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, describing them as impudent. The Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a statement last night: Israeli Foreign Minister Yisrael Katz continues his "impudent statements that include lies and slander and represent an insult to Turkey." The Turkish Foreign Ministry continued in its statement: 'The Israeli government is trying to prolong its life in power by killing innocent Palestinians, and its policies are causing unrest and instability in the region.' The Turkish Foreign Ministry stressed that the Israeli government must put an immediate end to the repression in the Gaza Strip and agree to a permanent ceasefire, stressing that Ankara will continue to defend the rights of the Palestinian people.
