During the meeting, the leaders discussed bilateral relations between Turkey and the US, the ongoing Gaza issue, the recent hostage swap in Turkey, and various regional and global developments. President Erdoğan expressed his concerns about the Netanyahu administration’s apparent reluctance to pursue a ceasefire and peace in the region.
President Erdoğan also condemned the disturbing images from the US House of Representatives, which have caused significant disappointment in Turkey and around the world.
