President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has urged the United States to “revise” its decision to deny visas to members of the Palestinian Authority to attend the UN General Assembly this month, AFP reports.
Speaking to Turkish journalists on the plane back from China after attending a meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation, Erdogan said the US decision was “not in line with the raison d’etre” of the United Nations.
“We believe that the decision should be revised as soon as possible,” he added.
