SAEDNEWS: The foreign ministers of Iran and Turkey called for immediate and coordinate efforts by Islamic countries to stop the Israeli regime’s genocidal crimes in Gaza.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi on Monday held a telephone conversation with his Turkish counterpart Hakan Fidan, whose country holds the rotating presidency of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).
They discussed the bilateral relations as well as regional and international developments.
The two ministers also exchanged views on the escalating situation in the region, particularly the intensifying attacks by the Zionist regime against the defenseless people of Gaza and its military aggressions against Syria.
The Iranian foreign minister strongly condemned the crimes committed by the Zionist regime in Gaza and the escalating genocide, especially through the deliberate denial of water and food to the Palestinian population, the ministry’s website reported.
He also called for serious and immediate action by the Islamic countries and for an emergency meeting of the Islamic countries, including through the OIC summit, and activating regional consultative mechanisms to stop the genocide in Gaza and to confront the occupying regime’s military aggression across the region.
For his part, the Turkish foreign minister condemned the Zionist regime’s crimes and assaults in both Gaza and Syria, stressing the urgent need for coordinated and decisive action by the Islamic nations to halt the regime’s criminal conduct.
