Fearing Israeli Strikes, Turkey's Erdogan Vows to Stockpile Missiles After Watching Iran's Plight

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is terrified by Israel's fierce attack on Iran. Erdogan, who dreams of becoming the Caliph of the Muslim world like the Ottoman Empire, has announced that his country will increase the production of missiles. Erdogan said that medium- and long-range missiles will be made so that no country can dare to attack Turkey. Erdogan's statement has come at a time when many analysts in Israel are advising that after Iran, Turkey should be attacked and taught a lesson. There is already tension between Israel and Turkey over Hamas.

Turkish President Statement

The Turkish president also said that the fight between Iran and Israel has reached a point from where there is no way to return. With Erdogan's announcement of making missiles, there is now a danger of an arms race flaring up in the region. Turkey is already a superpower of attacking drones and is now trying to stop Israel from attacking by increasing its missile power. Iran has fired hundreds of missiles at Israel in the latest war, many of which were shot down by the Israeli air defence system. Learning from this, Khalifa Erdogan also wants to increase missile power.

Turkey's foreign minister lashes out at Israel

Meanwhile, Turkey's Foreign Minister Fidan has also attacked Israel. Fidan said that Israel is a problem in our region. Israel's illegal attack against Iran will cause devastation in the entire region. Let us tell you that 9 days of fighting between Israel and Iran have been completed, and fierce attacks are being made from missiles, drones and fighter jets from both sides. Israel claims that Iran is trying to make a nuclear bomb. Israel has killed many nuclear scientists and more than 20 military commanders of Iran.

Erdogan said that the effect of Israel's attack will be seen from Europe to Asia for many years. Erdogan made this statement in the meeting of the Youth Forum of the Organisation of Islamic Countries (OIC) in Istanbul. During this, Erdogan indicated that Turkey will also have to strengthen its defence capability so that no one can attack his country. After a cabinet meeting on Monday, Erdogan said, 'We are planning to make medium- and long-range missiles so that their stockpile can be increased. In view of the recent developments, the number of these missiles will be increased to such a level that the defence capability can be ensured.'

Erdogan listed Turkey's weapons

The Turkish president said that if Allah wishes, we will very soon reach our defence capability and will become so powerful that no one will dare to attack us. He had said a few days ago that Turkey has succeeded in making drones, fighter jets, armoured vehicles and warships on its own. This needs to be taken forward as well. Turkey is a NATO member country, yet it lives in fear of attack. Analysts say that Erdogan is increasing the arms race in the region through these missiles.

Meanwhile, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said that if America actively joins the war with Israel, it will be 'extremely dangerous for everyone'. US President Donald Trump is considering US military participation. Araghchi said in this context that 'this would be very unfortunate.' Araghchi said this while talking to journalists in Istanbul while returning from talks in Geneva. However, no diplomatic success could be achieved in this conversation. After the talks ended, Araghchi said that he is ready for further talks, but he stressed that Tehran has no interest in talking with America amid the continued attacks from Israel
