FM Babacan Visits Al-Haram Al-Sharif In Israel

JERUSALEM - Turkish Foreign Minister & Deputy Prime Minister Ali Babacan visited al-Haram al-Sharif in Israel on Sunday.
Babacan, who arrived in Tel Aviv in the afternoon, later proceeded to al-Haram al-Sharif.
Babacan visited Abdulazim Selhab, the Chairman of Islamic Foundation, in his office in al-Haram al-Sharif. "You see the situation in Palestine. Palestinian people are shattered. People outside Jerusalem can not come to al-Haram Sharif to worship. I consider this as cruelty. We will get rid of this difficult situation with the support of Turkey," he said.
On the other hand, Babacan said Turkey would do its best to resolve the problems and called on Palestinian people to act in unity and integrity.
Babacan will start his contacts by meeting Israeli President Shimon Peres.
