Erdoğan: We won’t abandon Jerusalem to the mercy of a child-murderer state!

Speaking at a meeting of the ruling Justice and Development (AK) Party in Turkey's Sivas, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan mentioned 14-year-old Palestinian Fawzi Al-Junaidi, a symbol of the Intifada, who was detained by 22 Israeli soldiers. “Israel is a terrorist state. We will not abandon Jerusalem to the mercy of a child-murderer state," he said. U.S. President Donald Trump last week formally recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, which sparked clashes and global outrage.
