Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan delivered a powerful speech at the United Nations General Assembly on September 24, 2024, condemning Israel's military actions in Gaza and accusing Western nations of hypocrisy. He called for an "alliance of humanity" to stop Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
“Hundreds of Gazan children have died, and the values the West claims to defend are dying too,” Erdogan said, drawing applause from the Palestinian delegation. He also criticized Western nations for supplying Israel with weapons while publicly calling for peace, calling their actions "inconsistent and insincere."
