Jordan will host a ministerial-level meeting on Wednesday with foreign ministers from countries including Egypt and Indonesia, as well as the Arab League secretary-general, to discuss developments in Palestine, particularly Jerusalem, a city of religious significance whose eastern part is under Israeli occupation.

Turkish diplomatic sources said that at the meeting, Fidan is expected to emphasize the religious, historical and cultural significance of Jerusalem for Muslims, underscore that preserving the city's historical and legal status is a shared responsibility of the international community, and express concern over Israel's actions aimed at altering the historical and legal status of Al-Aqsa Mosque, settler violence and provocative acts, as well as violations targeting Christian holy sites and institutions in Jerusalem, Daily Sabah reported.

He is also expected to stress that the relocation of some countries' embassies to Jerusalem is contrary to international law and relevant United Nations resolutions, undermines the city's internationally recognized status and damages the prospects for a two-state solution. Fidan is also expected to express deep concern over measures aimed at altering the demographic composition of East Jerusalem, including the forced displacement of Palestinians and the demolition of their homes.

Türkiye's support for the rights of Palestinians and its backing of the Palestinian cause, particularly since Oct. 7, 2023, has cost it the opportunity to resume ties with Israel. Nevertheless, Ankara has remained unwavering in its support for Palestinians in the face of what it describes as Israel's genocide, which it says has evolved into a broader expansionist campaign threatening the entire region.

The foreign minister is also expected to draw attention to what Türkiye describes as the increasing implementation of de facto annexation policies and settler violence in the occupied West Bank, while emphasizing the importance of the international community taking concrete steps against Israel's alleged violations of international law and ensuring that such acts do not go unpunished.
