Turkey Denounces Israel's “Jewish Nation-State” Law

TEHRAN (Defapress)-“The Jewish nation-state law passed by the Israeli parliament today disregards norms of universal law and ignores the rights of Palestinians,” the ministry said in a statement, WAFA reported.

The statement came after the Knesset passed a law declaring the country as “the nation-state of the Jewish people”.

The ministry also condemned the law – which describes the right to self-determination in Israel as only belonging to Jewish people – as “antiquated” and “discriminatory.”

Turkey called on the international community to take a stand against the law.
