Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan stated on Wednesday that developing Turkey's satellite capabilities is not optional but a necessity. He emphasized that Turkey operates under the belief that having a presence in space translates to global influence, making satellite advancement imperative for the country.

In the same speech, Erdogan sharply criticized Israel, dismissing accusations against Turkey as baseless. He referred to Israel as a "crime network" responsible for the deaths of 75,000 innocent people in Gaza, mostly women and children. Erdogan highlighted Turkey's long history of justice and compassion, noting its tradition of aiding the oppressed regardless of religion, origin, or identity.

Erdogan also pointed out Turkey's historical role in providing refuge to those fleeing Nazi atrocities, asserting that those who accuse Turkey are attempting to obscure the brutal actions Israel is committing in Gaza.
