Erdogan says UN, Western values dying in Gaza

United Nations: Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday said that the values of the United Nations system and the Western world are dying in Gaza as the conflict continues there, calling for an “alliance of humanity” to stop Israel.

In a speech at the United Nations General Assembly, Erdogan reiterated his harsh criticism of Israel over its military campaign in the Gaza Strip and of the Western countries for their support to Israel.

“Along with children in Gaza, the United Nations system is also dying, the truth is dying, the values that the West claims to defend are dying, the hopes of humanity to live in a fairer world are dying one by one,” Erdogan said.

“Those who are supposedly working for a ceasefire continue to send weapons and ammunition to Israel behind the stage so that it can continue its massacres. This is inconsistency and insincerity,” Erdogan said.

Erdogan also said that Turkey stands with the people of Lebanon as Israel targets Hezbollah fighters with airstrikes there.
