'From economy to diplomacy, from trade to security, we need a new approach and a new global order to solve problems,' says Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Monday said the financial cost of destruction in Gaza is estimated at $100 billion and that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's government is responsible for "this heavy bill."
"The Israeli administration must first be charged with the destruction it has caused and with this, the reconstruction process in Gaza should be started," Erdogan said at the Türkiye-Malaysia Strategic Cooperation in the New Century meeting in Kuala Lumpur alongside Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
Instead of looking for a place for Gazans he cannot uproot from their land, Netanyahu should look for a source to cover the $100 billion in the damage he caused in the Palestinian enclave, the Turkish president said.
"Homes, lands, and workplaces seized by the Israeli state and the 'rogue' settlers must be returned to the rightful Palestinian owners," Erdogan added.
He noted that nobody will be able to inflict a second Nakba on the Palestinian people.
Erdogan also stated that building a trust-based system that embraces everyone and values differences as a source of richness is not a choice but an obligation.
"From economy to diplomacy, from trade to security, we need a new approach and a new global order to solve problems," he underscored.
For his part, Anwar said that Türkiye is a country that has significantly increased its national consciousness and honor, and has become a geopolitical power.
