Fidan: Iran's actions were self-defense, exposed Israel's limited capability
Ankara - Saba:
Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated on Friday that Iran's recent actions constituted "legitimate self-defense," noting that "Tehran's response revealed the limitations of Israel's ability to target Iran's nuclear capabilities."
In press remarks, Fidan said, "What we have seen demonstrates that Israel is not strong enough to eliminate Iran's nuclear program."
He added that the recent developments in the region were not unexpected for Ankara.
"We anticipated that the war would not remain confined to Gaza but would expand to a broader geography, which is exactly what happened with Iran," he said.
The Turkish minister pointed out that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a war criminal wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC), launched the war against Iran driven by domestic political motives. Fidan stated that Netanyahu's recent escalation aims to secure personal gains at the expense of regional security.
Regarding the situation in Gaza, Fidan emphasized that the humanitarian catastrophe has reached unbearable levels, stressing that targeting civilians awaiting humanitarian aid "appears to be a deliberate act."
Fidan called for urgent international action to halt the crimes being committed against civilians in the Strip.
