Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Friday that Türkiye's decision to suspend trade with Israel had one singular purpose, which is to compel the Israeli government into a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

He made the remarks during a meeting with the board of directors of the Independent Industrialists and Businessmen Association in Istanbul, according to the presidency's website.
