Erdogan urges West to stop Israel in Syria
“Western countries, particularly the US, have a major responsibility to stop Israel. They must loudly proclaim that Israel’s occupation of Syrian territory is unacceptable. Israel’s aggression, which poses a threat to peace and stability in our region, must be stopped before it’s too late. Otherwise, tomorrow, the Israeli boomerang will be aimed at those who support the country in all situations,” Erdogan told reporters from his pool upon return from Cairo where he had taken part in a summit of the D-8 Organization for Economic Cooperation.
“Israel has made a point of violating international law. The world was silent when it trampled on international law in Gaza. It also occupied territories in Lebanon, where blood was shed, and the world was silent once again. Today, Syria is the target of Israel’s recklessness,” Erdogan pointed out, mentioning the 1967 United Nations Security Council Resolution 242, TASS reported.
“The resolution condemns Israel’s occupation of the Golan Heights and demands its withdrawal from the area. It’s important for the international community to take measures to implement the resolution,” the Turkish president stated.
“All international mechanisms need to be effectively employed in order to prevent Israel from exploiting the situation in Syria,” Erdogan added.

Chilean president describes Netanyahu as “war criminal”
“At this time of year, as we celebrate Christmas, which symbolizes hope and humanity, we must move and think about the Palestinian people suffering in Gaza,” the Lebanese news outlet Al Mayadeen reported, citing remarks of Boric at a Christmas event hosted by the Palestinian community in Chile.
He condemned the actions of Netanyahu”s administration in Gaza as “crimes against humanity” that should not be overlooked.
“It is difficult to talk about human rights while turning a blind eye to the genocide taking place in Gaza. Defending humanity does not tolerate half-measures,” Boric indicated.
The Chilean leader urged the international community to take decisive action to end the ongoing massacres in Gaza, stressing that “Christmas should be an occasion for reflection and action for peace, not only in Gaza but also in the West Bank.”
This marks yet another instance of Boric condemning Israeli war crimes. In June, he called Netanyahu a war criminal during the Ukraine Peace Summit in Switzerland.
Furthermore, in September, Chile joined South Africa’s case before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) accusing “Israel” of committing genocide in Gaza.
In March, 620 Chilean lawyers filed a complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC) regarding genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity committed by Netanyahu, former Israeli war minister Yoav Gallant, and Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi, calling for their precautionary detention.

قیمت دلار باز می گردد
مجتبی یوسفی عضو هیأت رئیسه مجلس شورای اسلامی در گفتگو با خبرنگار مهر اشاره به تنشها و التهابات سنگین و گسترده یکسال اخیر در منطقه و همچنین کشورمان، اظهار کرد: در این مدت شاهد نوسانات بازار ارز بودیم که در حد طبیعی و البته موقت و گذرا بود؛ این در حالی است که همان زمان برخی پیشبینی میکردند نرخ دلار به بیشاز ۱۰۰ هزار تومان میرسد اما اینگونه نشد.
وی با بیان اینکه رشد شتابان و جهش بالای نرخ ارز در دوره ریاست فرزین کنترل شده است، تصریح کرد: ما منکر افزایش قیمت دلار و دیگر ارزهای خارجی در این مدت نیستیم؛ اما آنچه مهم جلوه میکند این است که خبری از تلاطمهای شدید ارزی سالهای قبل نیست.
عضو هیأت رئیسه مجلس افزود: اهمیت کار زمانی بیشتر مشخص میشود که در سالهای قبل ما چنین تنشهای سیاسی را تجربه نکرده بودیم؛ اما از اواسط سال گذشته با حوادث بزرگ سیاسی-امنیتی از جمله درگیریهای شدید در منطقه و شهادت رئیس جمهور کشورمان، ترور اسماعیل هنیه در تهران و شهادت رهبران مقاومت در لبنان و غزه و همچنین حملههای ایران به اسرائیل مواجه بودیم.
یوسفی خاطرنشان کرد: این حجم از اتفاقات امنیتی و سیاسی قطعاً تأثیر مستقیمی بر اقتصاد کشورها دارد و کشور ما نیز به تبع از این اتفاقات تأثیر پذیرفت.
عضو هیأت رئیسه مجلس اظهار داشت: با وجود همه این اتفاقات ما شاهد کاهش تلاطمهای ارزی در کشورمان نسبت به سالهای قبل بودیم که نتیجه مدیریت بانک مرکزی بوده است؛ این جمله به این معناست که اگر مدیریت خوب بانک مرکزی نبود ما نرخهای بسیار بالاتر از رقم کنونی را تجربه میکردیم.
یوسفی خاطرنشان کرد: باید به این نکته هم توجه کنیم که ما با تورم ۳۰ تا ۴۰ درصدی مواجه هستیم؛ اما نرخ دلار از ابتدای امسال تاکنون رشدی حدود ۲۲ درصدی داشته است و جهش زیادی محسوب نمیشود. همانطور که تجارب قبلی نشان داد نرخ ارز بعد از آرام شدن اوضاع منطقه عقبگرد داشته و اینبار هم با آرام گرفتن شرایط سوریه و درگیریهای منطقهای نرخ دلار به سطوح قبلی بازمیگردد.
وی در پایان با اشاره به راهاندازی بازار ارز تجاری گفت: یکی از اقدامات خوب دیگر بانک مرکزی با هدف حمایت از صادرات و شفافسازی در نرخ ارز و تحقق تکنرخی شدن، ایجاد بازار ارز تجاری یا همان بازار توافقی است که باعث عرضه بیشتر ارز نیز خواهد شد.
