“How is it possible that Malaysia will give sympathy to those who act inhumanely like the Israeli regime?” he was quoted saying by Astro Awani.He also echoed Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's call for Israel to cease its assault on Gaza and the establishment of a humanitarian corridor in Rafah, Egypt.
Nazri also said that the US State Department should not question Malaysia’s support for Hamas as they were legitimately voted in by Palestinians in their election.“Malaysia respects the support of the Palestinians in Gaza who have chosen Hamas as their administrator. There is no reason for Malaysia not to be with the Palestinians in their efforts to claim the rights that have been usurped by Israel.
Nazri also accused the US State Department of sidelining Malaysia after Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Zambry Abdul Kadir was allegedly snubbed when tried to get in touch with the US Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken.
