Erdoğan: US Middle East plan threatens regional peace

Sunday 16-February-2020

Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Saturday said that the US “peace plan” for the Middle East which is known as the “deal of the century” is nothing but a threat to the regional peace.

“We expect the Organization of Islamic Cooperation to urge all its members to take clear stance against this plan” he said in statements reported by Anadolu Agency.

“Neither the European Union nor Africa accept the so-called peace plan” he said expecting that Turkey will get favorable result at the United Nations.

Erdoğan stressed that Turkey will never allow “legitimization of invasion annexation and destruction”.

On 28 January 2019 the US president Donald Trump announced his “peace plan” for the Middle East in Washington in the presence of the outgoing Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Trump proposed an independent Palestinian state but with the recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank and Jerusalem as Israel’s “undivided capital”.
