Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan has said that there is a need to maintain momentum in the Gaza peace plan process, calling for increased pressure on Israel to prevent continued violations. “The efforts that the parties will make on this issue are important. In particular, putting pressure on Israel’s reluctance and preventing its violations are extremely important for moving to the second phase in Gaza. We are sincerely warning both the international community, the mediators and all actors in the Peace Board to take the necessary measures ,” Fidan said at a joint press conference with Austrian Foreign Minister Beate Meinl-Reisinger. He added that the conditions in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, which he described as an extension of Israeli expansionism in the region, do not serve the interests of the Middle East or Europe. “The situation risks generating further instability, energy security challenges and irregular migration flows ,” Fidan said. The minister also added that one million people have been displaced in Lebanon due to Israeli attacks and occupation, warning that further expansion could cause additional forced migration. For this reason, he added, Israel must be put under more qualified international pressure on this issue.
