Emir Participates in OIC Extraordinary Summit
Addressing the opening of the meeting, the Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu said that the Organisation of the Islamic Cooperation (OIC) convenes today to say "stop to tyranny".He said that US President Donald Trump's recognition of Al Quds as the capital of Israel is a harmful act against human conscience, and that this step aims to legitimize Israel's attempts to occupy Jerusalem."They expect the Islamic nation to remain silent. But we will never be silent. This bullying eliminates the possibility of peace. The US' decision is null as far as we are concerned," Cavusoglu said.The Turkish Foreign Minister stressed the importance for Palestinians to achieve national reconciliation and unity and not to be dragged behind provocations, adding that they also have to continue their struggle under the law and do not allow anyone to prejudice the sanctity of Jerusalem and its historical status.
