Sa'ar Calls Fidan's Israel-Burden Line Genocidal

Sa'ar Calls Fidan's Israel-Burden Line Genocidal

Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar posted at 23:59 IDT that Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan's remarks were clear incitement to genocide, after Fidan told CNN Turk that Israel had become a problem for the whole world and a burden humanity can no longer bear. The clash comes amid Israel's recognition of the Armenian genocide. Sa'ar said dehumanizing the Jewish people as an unbearable burden echoed the language of history's worst persecutors, and called on NATO allies to condemn the explicit call for Israel's destruction. Israel should answer Ankara's hostility with moral clarity and stronger alliances.
