#Turkey’s Foreign Minister Mevlut Çavuşoğlu said at OIC meeting that the war in Ukraine has revealed the international community’s double standards. He said: “we heard those saying ‘this is not the Middle East, this is not Afghanistan. Why is blood spilled?’ But for us, the blood spilled in Kharkiv and the blood spilled in Aleppo are equal.”
Çavuşoğlu also called on the Muslim world to question itself and one should not blame others for the situation in the Islamic world.
