President Erdoğan made important statements at the "Bosphorus Diplomacy Forum" on Democracy and Freedom Island.

In his speech, Erdoğan stated that there is a global systemic crisis, and mechanisms like the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) have become part of the problem instead of providing solutions. Erdoğan pointed to a wide range of emerging threats, from water and climate crises to issues in food chains, trade wars, and global instability.

"THERE IS A SYSTEMIC CRISIS"

Starting his speech with the statement, "Each of our young people who build our future for the strong tomorrows of our country are the stars of the century," Erdoğan said, "The order established by the victors after World War II has lost its credibility. Universal values have been shelved. Global peace has given way to the vortex of war." Stating that the current order particularly burdens his region, Erdoğan assessed, "There is a very large systemic crisis. The global system has failed."

"IT IS OUR DUTY TO LEAD TO A SOLUTION"

Recalling that Turkey has historically rushed to the aid of the oppressed, Erdoğan emphasized that this tradition continues today: "This nation has never said 'What do I care?' at any point in history. It is our duty to lead to a solution. Our only aim is to ensure peace and stability in the region strongly."

"GENOCIDE IS HAPPENING IN GAZA"

Referring to the examples of Syria and Russia-Ukraine, Erdoğan explained Turkey's stance towards the oppressed. "For a full 14 years in our neighbor Syria, we stood by the Syrian oppressed against the bloody regime... Similarly, we worked for a just peace in the Russia-Ukraine war. Now we are doing the same in Gaza," he said.

In his assessment regarding Gaza, Erdoğan used strong expressions, stating, "A genocide has been taking place in Gaza for 2 years in front of the world's eyes. Netanyahu and the massacre crew are targeting Palestinian civilians." Highlighting the attacks on aid distribution points, Erdoğan reiterated his claims with the words, "Hunger is being used as a weapon in Gaza. Thousands of civilians have been killed at the so-called aid distribution points."

FIRST COMMENT ON NETANYAHU'S PROTEST

Addressing the protest against Netanyahu during the UNSC session, Erdoğan recalled the protests directed at the Israeli leader and the images during the session, saying, "Yesterday, the murderer known as Netanyahu addressed those empty seats in the UNSC. The oppressed's curse will come back to haunt you, slowly but surely. If the oppressors have an account, Allah has an account too. That account will prevail sooner or later. The monster must be stopped. Deterrent sanctions must be imposed on Israel..."
