Growing Criticism of Israel by NATO Nations as Iran's Raisi Cancels Turkey Visit

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan spoke with Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi about the war in Gaza, with Raisi expressing support for Hamas as the "legitimate, legal government" in Gaza and criticizing the United States as the "killer of the people of Gaza." The growing friendship between Iran and Turkey could pose challenges for the United States, as Turkey is a critical NATO member and the United States is closely allied with Israel. Meanwhile, criticism of Israel is increasing among other NATO nations, with Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez expressing openness to recognizing the Palestinian state and Greek warning Israel about a surge of undocumented migrants due to its war against Hamas.
