Davutoglu: Turkey is against anti-Semitism and Israeli aggression

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu commented today on the recent

appeal by the U.S. Congress with a request to Prime Minister Recep

Tayyip Erdogan to abandon comparing Zionism with Nazism. The prime minister

explained that Turkey will undoubtedly oppose anti-semitism, but also

takes a tough stance on Israel's aggressive policy towards its

neighbors.

"On these issues, our position is open, we are against anti-semitism.

But we have always been and will continue to oppose the expansionist

policy of Israel and its aggressive stance in the region. Let no one

doubt it," RIA Novosti quotes him.

Davutoglu added that any nation that is faced with a violation of human

rights will be welcomed in Turkey.
