Erdogan Blasts Trump’s ‘Gaza Takeover’ Plan: ‘No One Can Remove Palestinians from Their Homeland!’

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has fiercely condemned former U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposal to seize control of Gaza and remove its Palestinian population. Speaking in Istanbul, Erdogan declared, “No one has the power to remove the people of Gaza from their eternal homeland,” reaffirming that Gaza, the West Bank, and East Jerusalem belong to the Palestinians. Trump’s plan, announced alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has sparked global outrage, particularly in the Arab and Muslim world. While Netanyahu praised the proposal as “the first good idea” for Gaza’s future, Erdogan dismissed it as “worthless” and accused Zionist leadership of pushing an agenda that holds “nothing worth discussing.” #Trump #DonaldTrump #TrumpGaza #TrumpGazaTakeover #TrumpGazaPlan #ErdoganVsTrump #Erdogan #RecepTayyipErdogan #ErdoganOnTrump #TrumpErdoganConflict #GazaTakeover #TrumpGazaNews #ErdoganSpeech #TrumpGazaStrip #GazaCrisis Also Read Donald Trump To Announce 25% Tariffs On Steel And Aluminum Imports :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-to-announce-25-tariffs-on-steel-and-aluminum-imports-on-monday-4066973.html?ref=DMDesc US Prez Trump Says He's Revoking Biden's Security Clearance, Ending Intelligence Briefings In Payback Move :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-prez-trump-says-hes-revoking-bidens-security-clearance-ending-intelligence-briefings-in-paybac-4065405.html?ref=DMDesc Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba's Washington Visit Aims to Establish Trust with President Trump :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/japan-ishiaba-washington-trip-trump-connection-011-4065309.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.194~PR.152~
