Israeli FM Discusses Turkey's Exclusion From NATO

The Israeli Foreign Minister has called for Turkey's eviction from NATO amid Erdoğan's warning of an incursion

Turkey's president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has threatened to enter Israel, as it has done in Libya and Nagorno-Karabakh.

Israel Katz, Israel's foreign minister, has requested NATO to expel Turkey.

Foreign Minister Israel Katz directed ambassadors to swiftly interact with all NATO countries, condemning Turkey and seeking its expulsion from the alliance," the ministry said.

"Erdogan has stepped in Saddam Hussein's footsteps, threatening to destroy Israel. "He should remember what happened and how it ended," Israeli FM said.

Erdoğan said that it is absurd to compare me with former dictator Saddam Hussein.

He further added that Israeli government is targeting him because of my support for Palestinians.

NATO does not have an official procedure to suspend or expel a member, though members may freely depart.

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg ridiculed the possibility of adopting such a mechanism in 2021, saying it “would never happen.”
