Trkiye Condemns Colombia’s Statement on Israel’s Golan Heights Occupation

Ankara: Trkiye "strongly" condemned a statement by Colombia that seeks to legitimize Israel's occupation of the Golan Heights, emphasizing that the territory is an integral part of Syria. According to Anadolu Agency, the Turkish Foreign Ministry released a statement on its website, asserting that such isolated attempts constitute a grave violation of international law, specifically referencing UN Security Council Resolution 497. The ministry declared that these actions hold no legal weight. The statement further urged the international community to fulfill its responsibilities in ending Israel's occupation of southern Syria, including the Golan Heights, and to address its attacks on Syria's sovereignty and stability. Trkiye affirmed its commitment to supporting Syria's territorial integrity and sovereignty while working towards lasting peace and stability in the region.
