Erdogan rejects Israeli move to recognise Armenian genocide
Erdogan rejects an Israeli proposal to recognize the Armenian genocide, accusing Israel of committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The Israeli measure requires parliamentary approval and comes amid deteriorating relations between Israel and Türkiye. Türkiye opposes recognizing the 1915 mass killings of Armenians as genocide, while Armenians advocate for global recognition.
