Turkey has reiterated that it welcomes recent developments for reaching political unity in Palestine after long-standing efforts between Hamas and al-Fateh yielded positive results in the last weeks.
“We welcome the recent developments made in the process towards achieving unity among our Palestinian brothers and the Meeting of the Council of Ministers held in this context on Oct. 3 by the Government of Palestine in Gaza,” the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in a written statement on Oct 5.
“Turkey will continue in the period ahead its support for the efforts to conclude as soon as possible the process of Palestinian reconciliation which we consider essential for the two state solution and indispensable for the lasting peace and stability in the Middle East,” it said.
