Last week, the United States vetoed the UAE-drafted resolution demanding "an immediate humanitarian ceasefire" and "immediate and unconditional release of all hostages, as well as ensuring humanitarian access."

"We expect that the United States will no longer hinder the implementation of UN decisions. At the moment, only the United States stands between the massacre in the Gaza Strip and the ceasefire," Fidan said at a press conference in Baku.

Ankara calls for an immediate ceasefire and an end to attacks on Palestinians and the start of the peace process, Fidan added.
