"Israel must under no circumstance interfere" in what is happening in Egypt.
Turkish Prime Minsiter called on the Zionist entity not to interfere in the Egyptian issues, as Egypt commented on Erdogan’s remarks on the protest in the Arab country.
Speaking to a group of reporters at the opening of a "friendship bridge" between Turkey and Syria, Erdogan said on Monday that "Israel must under no circumstance interfere" in what is happening in Egypt, Turkish daily Huriyyet reported.
Erdogan said he had made this point to US President Barack Obama and Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou, adding that they should intervene to stop Israel should it be "inclined to meddle in Egypt in a last-ditch effort to try and turn the tide against the anti-Mubarak demonstrators," the daily reported.
On the other hand, Egypt sent an official letter of protest to Turkey on Tuesday about Erdogan's comments on the protests in Egypt.
Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit wrote to his Turkish counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu that Egypt reject's Erdogan's call for Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak to resign.
The letter explained that Egypt sees these words as “intervention in internal matters and incitement.”
Aboul Gheit also called on Turkey not to publish more statements that can “harm the relations” between the two countries.
