Turkish PM: Israel must beg to be pardoned


500148 Afran

Turkey's Prime Minister Recep Teyyip Erdogan Monday called Israeli forces' attack against Int'l Peace Flotilla a "piracy" urging Zionist regime to beg to be pardoned.

Erdogan made the comment after a meeting with his Serbian counterpart at a press conference, adding, "In addition to begging to be pardoned, Israel must pay compensation to the bereaved families of its attack's victims."

The Turkish prime minister reiterated, "Ankara still asks for ending the siege of Gaza."
After Israel's attack against the International Peace Flotilla near Gaza at international waters in May 2010 which led to martyrdom of dozens of innocent relief workers, including more than ten from Turkey, Ankara recalled home its ambassador to Tel Aviv, shut down its air space for Israeli military planes, and refrained from participation at a joint war game with the Zionist regime.
