The reason why President Erdoğan's plane, which was heading to the Gaza summit, skipped the runway in Egypt has been revealed.
President Erdoğan's plane decided at the last moment not to land at Sharm El Sheikh Airport in Egypt and skipped the runway. The plane, which waited for a while over the Red Sea, later landed at the airport.
NETANYAHU'S INVITATION CAUSED A CRISIS
According to reports from journalists on the plane; it was stated that President Erdoğan decided not to land at the airport upon hearing that Netanyahu would also attend the summit, and he informed Egypt about this. After Israel announced that Netanyahu would not attend the summit, the presidential plane landed in Egypt.
THE JOURNALIST ON THE PLANE DESCRIBED THE MOMENT
Hasan Öztürk, the General Broadcast Director of Ülke TV, made a statement during a live broadcast regarding the issue, saying, "While we were on the plane, Trump met with Netanyahu in Israel and while talking to Netanyahu, he called Sisi and said, 'Invite Netanyahu.' Thus, suddenly news spread that 'Netanyahu is going to Sharm El Sheikh.' Those moments on the plane were clearly a cold shower... While we were talking among ourselves, we were chasing the question, 'What will happen now?' While discussing, 'If a genocide criminal participates in such a peace summit after all that has happened, what will be the reaction of Turkey and other Islamic countries?' the reaction from Iraq came. And while we were discussing this, the plane opened its landing gear and approached the runway. Just as the plane was about to touch down, the presidential plane took off again. Just as we were about to land at Sharm El Sheikh Airport, we suddenly ascended again and turned towards Turkey. Then suddenly, one more last-minute news came in, and our plane turned back. There is no official explanation for this; I am not speaking based on information, I am expressing my feelings, and I must say this. Against the possibility of Netanyahu's attendance, the cold air on the plane turned into a mild climate, and our plane opened its wheels again and landed at Sharm El Sheikh Airport. President Erdoğan also directly went to the exhibition area at the airport... The stance Turkey showed against Netanyahu's arrival can also be considered from my perspective," he said.
