Erdogan says that Turkey could enter Israel just as it has entered Karabakh and Libya

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated on Sunday that Turkey could intervene in Israel in a manner similar to its past actions in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh. In a speech, Erdogan strongly criticized the Israeli offensive in Gaza and highlighted the necessity of strengthening Turkey's defense industry to prevent such "absurd" actions against Palestine.

Erdogan said, "We need to be strong so that Israel cannot do these absurd things to Palestine." He emphasized that Turkey has had success with its interventions in Karabakh and Libya, and suggested that a similar approach could be taken towards Israel. However, he did not specify the type of intervention he was proposing, leaving it open to interpretation.

Erdogan's comments followed severe criticism of Israeli policies in Gaza and are part of a broader rhetoric from Turkey to support Palestine and challenge Israeli policies. This stance has heightened international tensions and raised concerns about the potential escalation of the situation in the region. Erdogan, known for his strong rhetoric and commitment to Palestinian issues, is using these statements to bolster Turkey's role as a significant actor in international politics and to emphasize its support for oppressed peoples.
