Friday 18-May-2018

Spokesperson for the Turkish president İbrahim Kalın on Thursday said that the Islamic summit to be held in Istanbul Friday will discuss the practical steps to be made by Islamic countries to defend the Palestinian cause and Jerusalem.

This was said in a statement released by Kalın Thursday on the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) summit which will be held with the participation of presidents of the OIC member states under the auspices of Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

Kalın pointed out that the Islamic summit will discuss the violation of international law committed by the US administration by transferring its embassy to Jerusalem in addition to the serious developments that have emerged after the killing of Palestinian civilians taking part in Gaza peaceful demonstrations.

Kalın stressed that the Palestinian cause does not only concern the Islamic countries but it is also a common issue for all those who believe in law and justice.

“The Islamic summit will discuss steps to mobilize international public opinion to end injustice in Palestine” he added.
