JAKARTA - Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim called Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Thursday (5/3) evening, after the ballistic missile headed into Turkish airspace some time ago.
"I convey Malaysia's solidarity to Turkey following the incident of a ballistic missile that headed into the country's airspace - a development that underscores how fragile the current regional security situation is," Anwar said as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, March 6.
Anwar conveyed through a telephone call that he exchanged views on the increasingly serious conflict in the Middle East following a series of attacks that threatened the stability of the region.
Anwar and Erdogan agreed that all parties must show restraint and high wisdom to prevent the situation from getting worse.
Meanwhile, regarding the killing of several senior Iranian leaders, including the late Ali Khamenei, Anwar emphasized that this development risked pushing the Middle East into a serious and prolonged period of instability.
On the other hand, he expressed appreciation for President Erdogan's role as a conscience voice for the Muslim world, including Turkey's efforts to mediate between Washington and Tehran in opening up a space for dialogue and seeking a diplomatic solution.
"Regarding Palestine, I express my appreciation to Turkey and several other countries that have condemned Israel's decision to expand illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank. Malaysia's stance is clear that the actions of the Zionist regime are a violation of international law," said Anwar.
