Turkey, Azerbaijan Condemn Israel's Armenian Genocide Recognition

Turkey's Foreign Ministry has criticized Israel's decision to recognize the Armenian Genocide, characterizing the move as "politically motivated" and arguing it aims to deflect attention from the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Azerbaijan has also condemned the Israeli government's recognition. The statement from Ankara suggests Turkey views the gesture as a strategic maneuver rather than a genuine acknowledgment of historical events.

Israel's formal recognition of the Armenian Genocide—which occurred in 1915 under Ottoman rule and resulted in the deaths of an estimated 1.5 million Armenians—marks a significant diplomatic shift. The development reflects evolving geopolitical dynamics in the Middle East and broader international attitudes toward historical atrocities.
