Turkey Rejects Trump’s Gaza Takeover Plan
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan vehemently rejected a purported U.S. plan to seize Gaza, deeming it unrealistic and unsupported internationally, except by Israel and the U.S. He reiterated Turkey’s support for a two-state solution, criticizing Israel’s expansionist policies and urging Arab nations to adopt a stronger stance against them. Fidan also addressed regional concerns, including Syria’s territorial integrity and the ongoing conflicts in Sudan and Ukraine, highlighting Turkey’s mediating role and humanitarian efforts. He emphasized that removing Hamas from Gaza wouldn’t solve the underlying issues stemming from Israeli occupation.
