#BREAKING Turkish President Erdogan and US President Biden held a phone call.

They discussed Israel's attacks on Palestinian territories, especially Gaza, Türkiye-US bilateral relations, Sweden's NATO membership process and global and regional issues.

During the call, President Erdogan stated that the humanitarian tragedy in Gaza must be stopped immediately, that the unconditional withdrawal of unconditional support by the United States to Israel can quickly bring about a ceasefire, that both the world and the US public opinion have been voicing this demand more loudly in recent days, and that it is the historical responsibility of the United States to ensure a permanent ceasefire in the region as soon as possible.

President Erdogan stated that the deepening and prolongation of Israel's attacks may have negative regional and global consequences, and that the establishment of the guarantor mechanism proposed by Türkiye, keeping the promises made, and the establishment of an independent, sovereign, territorially integrated Palestinian State with Jerusalem as its capital on the basis of 1967 borders is the most reasonable and permanent solution.
