Istanbul, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan warned of the expansion of the Israeli aggression against Gaza to include other areas in the region.
Fidan said in a televised interview with a Turkish channel broadcast last night: The danger of war expanding in the region has become closer than ever as long as Israel continues to commit genocide against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and threaten Lebanon.
In this context, he pointed to the escalation taking place on the Lebanese-Israeli front, and the entry of the Yemeni Houthi group into the Red Sea line.
Fidan stressed that the confrontations currently taking place at a low level between Israel and Hezbollah in the region may turn into a major war in which other parties will become involved.
The Turkish Foreign Minister stressed that Benjamin Netanyahu’s government is pursuing a policy that uses Hamas as a pretext in order to completely eliminate the Palestinian resistance movement and legitimize the occupation that has been ongoing for many years to
make it de facto.
Regarding the Syrian issue, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan said that his country urges the Syrian regime to take advantage of the state of calm and stop clashes in order to solve constitutional problems and achieve peace with its opponents.
Fidan added: The most important thing that Turkey and Russia have achieved in the Syrian issue is stopping the fighting between the regime and the opposition.
The Turkish Foreign Minister said: “What we want is for the Syrian regime to rationally exploit this period of non-intensification of the conflict during this period and the calm it is witnessing, and to exploit all these years as an opportunity to solve its constitutional problems and achieve peace with its opponents.”
Fidan called on the Syrian regime to seize the opportunity of calm in order to ‘return millions of Syrians who fled abroad, left, or immigrated again to rebuild their country and revive its economy instead of the current state of suffering.’
