Former parliament speaker, Mustafa Şentop, described the era as “a period in which Western human rights and the paradigms of the rule of law have collapsed,” in his opening speech before the panel. “A period in which Zionist aggression has become blatant, and the paradigms of Western human rights and the rule of law have collapsed.”

Pointing out that human rights are for only Western people and biased, Şentop said human rights are not valid for the outsiders of the West.

He said when crossing outside Europe, humanitarian issues become “political matters.»

Drawing attention to the situation in the Gaza Strip, which has been under Israeli attack for one year, Şentop said Israel is not only targeting places that belong to Islam and killing Muslims but is also targeting places that belong to Christianity and Christians.

Yet, the Christian world has remained silent, he added.
