Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs condemned yesterday Wednesday Israel's ongoing settlement activities in occupied Jerusalem.
The Israeli attempts to legitimise construction of many outposts in the West Bank and the Ocp. Palestinian territories violate the international law, said the ministry in a press release.
These activities threaten peace process in the Middle East and destabilise the two-state solution, affirmed Turkey.
Turkey called on the International community to " emphasize that settlements are unacceptable" and appealed to Israel to abide to the international law.
Here comes the press release below.
We strongly condemn the Israeli Governments issuance of tenders for the construction of many additional units at the Nof Zion and Givat Zeev settlements in East Jerusalem and the legitimization of the Rechelim, Bruchin and Sansana outposts in the West Bank in the context of the Israeli legislation, adding anew to its settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territories.
All settlement activities pursued by Israel in the Palestinian territories are violations of the international law. Efforts to legitimize these settlements in the context of the Israeli laws do not alter this fact.
Israel obstructs the revitalization of the peace process and seriously endangers the vision of a two-state solution through its settlement activities persistently maintained in disregard of the reactions of the world public opinion. In this context, the international community should continue to emphasize that the settlements are unacceptable.
We call on Israel to fulfill its responsibilities stemming from the international law concerning lasting peace in the Middle East and to put an end immediately to all its activities destroying the basis for peace.
