Türkiye on Wednesday condemned remarks by Israel's Foreign Ministry directed against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, calling them "vile and insolent slander" aimed at concealing the facts.

"The vile and insolent slander by Israel's Foreign Ministry targeting our esteemed president constitutes another example of the Israeli authorities' futile efforts to conceal the truth," the Turkish Foreign Ministry said in an official statement.

The statement noted that Erdogan had once again brought Israel's systematic policies of oppression to the international agenda during his opening address at the Leaders' Summit of the COP31 UN Climate Change Conference, hosted by Türkiye, expressing sentiments and views that resonated with the shared conscience of humanity.

"Türkiye will continue to stand by all those oppressed by Israel's aggressive policies, particularly the Palestinians," the ministry added.
