Spokesman for Turkey's Erdogan calls on Israel to halt 'illegal settlements'

ANKARA, Feb 22 (Reuters) Turkey today called on the Israeli government to halt what it called "illegal settlement policies" on Palestinian land.
Ibrahim Kalin, the spokesman for President Tayyip Erdogan, made the comment at a news conference in Ankara. Erdogan has previously condemned Israel's decision to ramp up settlements in the West Bank as an "absolute provocation".
Israel announced plans last month for 3,000 more settlement homes in the occupied West Bank. It has also retroactively legalised about 4,000 settlement homes built on privately owned Palestinian land, a move that brought condemnation from the United Nations and the European Union.
