Turkey has called the UAE's peace
deal with Israel a hypocritical act and said that history and the people of the
region will never forget the agreement. In a joint statement issued Thursday,
US President Donald Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Abu
Dhabi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed expressed hope that this historic
development would help to bring peace to the Middle East.
A statement issued by the Turkish
Foreign Ministry said that the UAE's attitude was "hypocritical". Turkey
says history and the people of the region will never forget the UAE's
"hypocritical behaviour" on the deal with Israel because, according
to Turkey, the UAE has made the decision in its own interests. The statement
added that the "strong reaction of the Palestinian people and the
administration against this agreement is justified." This is very
disturbing. The UAE should have followed the Arab peace plan drawn up by the
Arab League. It is not true that this tripartite declaration is being seen as
beneficial to the Palestinian people.
It should be noted that Turkey
has diplomatic and trade relations with Israel, but these relations have been
strained for years. In 2010, Israeli troops killed 10 Turkish workers trying to
break the blockade on the Gaza Strip.
President Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu and Crown
Prince Mohammed bin Zayed said in a joint statement on Thursday that the deal
would result in Israel suspending plans to annex more territory in occupied
West Bank to Israel.
