Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, President of Türkiye, has accused the West of bloodshed in the Gaza Strip and compared the civilians killed there to those killed in Russia’s war against Ukraine at a pro-Palestinian rally in Istanbul.

Quote: “Those shedding crocodile tears for civilians killed in Ukraine-Russia war are silently watching [the] deaths of thousands of innocent children in Gaza.”
Details: At the same time, Erdoğan said that Türkiye does not condone attacks on civilians in Israel. “We are saddened for every civilian in any way, but Israel does not care,” he added.
“We shed tears for the residents of many regions: from Crimea to Karabakh, from Bosnia to Kirkuk, from Palestine to Turkestan, from Afghanistan to Chechnya,” Erdoğan said.
During the speech, the Turkish president wore a scarf in Palestinian colours.

I don’t see this big mouth shedding any tears for Ukrainians murdered by his buddy Putler.
Pre-Erdogan, Turkey had good relations with Israel.
Now he’s taking Turkey in a Nazi direction.
Roman Sheremeta posted a photo on his FB page of a shop in Istanbul.
It said “No Jews allowed” in Turkish and English.
Until Lenin, Crimea was majority Tatar, then he started his deportation/murder pogrom, which was accelerated under Stalin, who committed genocide on the Tatars in WW2.
It shows that the “crocodile tears” belong to Erdogan. If he really cared about the Tatars, who are a Turkic people, he would have called out putler for the terrorist/mass murderer that he is.
Instead he allows wealthy putinaZis to avail themselves of his 5* hotels on the Med and allows Turkey to be a transit hub for $billions worth of western goods; fmcg’s, durables, hi tech, fashion etc.
This bag of hot air doesn’t give a crap about anyone in Ukraine, otherwise the hypocrite moron wouldn’t do big business with mafia land.
Throw turkey out of NATO! Hungary, too!
Not even the same. Hamas picked a fight and is getting their clock cleaned. Again. Russia started the war in Ukraine, not Ukraine.
I never liked Erdogan but in this he’s RIGHT. Ukraine should compare itself with Palestinians, like ruzzia can be compared to agressor, invader,ocuupier and annexer state of Israel in Palestine.
Ukraine is fighting against a agressor and so are Palestinians.
state of Israel in Palestine sells weapons(rockets a.o.) to ruzzia which rains down on Ukraine and what has it ever done for Ukraine?? They made clear to see ruzzia as friend, so the enemy of my enemy I will regard as friend not them.

In a way you can see of way Israel treated Palestinians what would happen if ruzzia conquered Ukraine, Annihilation of people, culture, history:
