ANKARA, December 5, 2017 (WAFA) - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan threatened on Tuesday to cut ties with Tel Aviv if the US administration recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Erdogan said in a press statement that the Organization of Islamic Cooperation will hold a meeting in Istanbul to mobilize the Islamic world through important activities in case US President Donald Trump proceeds with this step. 

"Jerusalem is a red line to Muslims,” Erdogan said addressing Trump.
