Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan today again compared Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with the leader of Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler, this time in a speech at the annual session of the United Nations (UN) General Assembly.
"Just as Hitler was stopped by the alliance of humanity seventy years ago, Netanyahu and his murderous network must be stopped by the alliance of humanity," Erdogan said, according to Israeli media.
He assessed that the values of the UN system and the Western world are "dying in Gaza" and called for an "alliance of humanity" to stop Israel. He also criticized the UN Security Council for failing to stop the war in Gaza.
Erdogan spoke right after the President of the United States of America (USA) Joseph Biden and did not hide his dissatisfaction with Washington's policy in the region.
"Those who are supposedly working for a ceasefire from this place continue to send weapons and ammunition to Israel so that it can continue its massacres," the Turkish leader said.
Referring to the latest tension between Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah, Erdogan said Turkey stands with the people of Lebanon and accuses Israel of dragging the entire region into war because of its attacks on Hezbollah members.
"What are you waiting for to stop the network of massacres that, along with the Palestinian people, endangers your own citizens and drags the entire region into war because of your political interests?" Erdogan asked.
