Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on July 27 said that he “expected an apology” from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Paralel.Az reports citing Turkish media.

Speaking at a meeting in Rize province, Erdoğan criticized other political parties for condemning the government for not inviting Abbas to the Turkish Parliament to deliver a speech.

“The other day, we all watched those disgraceful scenes in the U.S. House of Representatives together. Frankly, we were ashamed on behalf of humanity in the face of what we saw there. It is a great mental eclipse for America to roll out a red carpet for someone like Netanyahu, to go much further and applaud his lies until his hands swell,” President Erdoğan first criticized the visit of Israeli Prime Minister to the U.S. amid Gaza Genocide.
