Turkey has halted all trade with Israel, citing the “worsening humanitarian tragedy” in the Palestinian territories, which prompted strong criticism from the Israeli foreign minister.
“Export and import transactions related to Israel have been stopped, covering all products,” Turkey’s trade ministry said late on Thursday.
“Turkey will strictly and decisively implement these new measures until the Israeli government allows an uninterrupted and sufficient flow of humanitarian aid to Gaza.”
Israel’s foreign minister, Israel Katz, accused Turkey’s president, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, of acting like a “dictator” after the restrictions were first reported.
“Humanitarian tragedy”
Just say “genocide”, cowards.
Ask an Armenian why Erdogan chooses those words
Ooh pick me, pick me, I’m American, but my great grandfather was Armenian. Want to know why he came to America suddenly?
It’s terrible. If it wasn’t for one of my best friends being Armenian, I most likely wouldn’t know. They didn’t teach that in any school I attended (thru college)
My great grandfather survived, my grandpa went on to have 7 kids and 5 of them went on to have kids (that we know of). We made the best of it. I’m going to teach my daughter about it when she’s old enough to understand. Just do good in the world and tell not only our story, but all the other ones too.
the genocide of the Armenians is not taught about in German schools because it regularly resulted in attacks on teachers from turkish parents if teachers so much as spoke about it to their students.
Wtf? Why not just imprison the pro-genocide fucks? Why limit education instead?
I learned about the Armenian genocide as well as the ongoing struggles of the Armenian people because of System of a Down. Pretty sure if it wasn’t for that band, I would have never heard about it.
Great point, hadn’t thought of that.
If you trick him into saying that word he gets banished to his dimension
