Turkish Leader Criticizes Trump's Middle East Peace Plan

Ayaz Gul

   ISLAMABAD - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, during a visit to
   Pakistan Friday, reiterated strong opposition to U.S. President Donald
   Trump's recently announced Middle East peace initiative, denouncing it
   as an "occupation project."

   In his address to a special joint session of the Pakistani parliament,
   Erdogan said that protecting Jerusalem is a "red line" for his country
   and Ankara will never leave the holy city to the mercy of what he
   called the invading Israeli state.

   "We strongly responded and will continue to give the strongest response
   to the occupation, annexation and destruction plan announced by the
   U.S. government," said the Turkish leader.
