Erdoğan has responded to Netanyahu’s claim that Al Quds is theirs (Israel’s) in his X account;
We ruled for centuries and brought order to the world, wielding the sword of justice, in the very lands where those who now provoke us only arrived two or three generations ago.
Wherever our flag has flown, we brought only peace and tranquility.
In this geography, we are neither guests nor occupiers; we are the hosts.
We have been here for a thousand years, and God willing, we will remain here until the Day of Judgment.
Of course, we are well aware of what some are trying to do.
We know both the script and the scriptwriters very well.
The plans to trap our region in instability will, God willing, not succeed.
Imperialist and Zionist bloodsuckers will not reach their insidious goals.
With God’s permission, we have the power, strength, capacity, and of course the wisdom and foresight to foil every plot and tear up every script.
Without falling into provocation, with common sense and composure, and in a careful and determined way, we will continue our blessed march.
As 86 million people, by holding tightly to our eternal brotherhood, unity, and solidarity, we will once again shatter the plots.
In defiance of those who try to divide us by ethnicity, sect, or lifestyle, we will cling to one another, embrace one another, trust one another, and speak to one another in the language of tolerance and empathy.
With hopeful, patient, firm, and sincere steps, we will, God willing, together achieve the goal of a Terror-Free Türkiye.
We will crown this process with success, with honor, without ever staining the trust of our martyrs and veterans.
As citizens of the Republic of Türkiye, we will together write a new epic of brotherhood, a new story of success.
