Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and French President Emmanuel Macron discussed the humanitarian situation resulting from the Israeli-Palestinian escalation and the efforts and steps that must be taken to ensure calm.
The Turkish Presidency's Communications Department said in a statement on Friday that Erdogan, in a phone call with Macron, called on Western countries to take steps that would reduce tension in Palestine and refrain from actions that do not serve peace.
The Turkish President expressed his rejection of human rights violations against innocent civilians in the Gaza Strip.
He stressed the efforts made by Turkey to deliver aid to civilians in Gaza, which has been subjected to intense Israeli bombing for 7 days.
The Turkish President stressed the need for the international community to listen to Turkish proposals that are based on the two-state solution in order to find a permanent solution to the problem.
The Turkish President indicated during the phone call that by dealing with the issue of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict seriously, a solution could be found that would comfort the region and the world.
