President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan spoke at the "TRT World Forum 2025" held in Istanbul.

Criticizing the structure of the United Nations (UN), President Erdoğan said, "Wars, conflicts, and injustices have virtually occupied the agenda of all humanity. The UN Security Council cannot produce solutions to the common problems of humanity due to its unjust decision-making structure."

Erdoğan stated that both the problems and their solutions are clear, saying, "In many parts of the world, innocent people continue to die. We say the world is bigger than five. It is evident that the UN Security Council needs a restructuring that reflects current realities."

"ISRAEL IS NOT INNOCENT; IT IS THE VERY DEFINITION OF TYRANNY"

Reacting to Israel's attacks on Gaza, Erdoğan said, "They still say Israel is innocent. It happened to us yesterday; we said what needed to be said. Nuclear weapons are in Israel, and Israel has the capability to strike Gaza at any moment. How can it be innocent? Israel is not innocent; it is the very definition of tyranny. As Turkey, we will not swallow this. Israel is currently using hunger as a deadly weapon, especially against children. 270 journalists have been murdered."

"WE WILL NEVER LEAVE OUR PALESTINIAN BROTHERS ALONE"

President Erdoğan stated that Turkey is ready to put all its efforts into rebuilding Gaza as soon as possible, saying, "We will never leave our Palestinian brothers alone. We will continue to advocate for a two-state solution. We find the decisions to recognize Palestine important."

"NO COUNTRY CAN AFFORD TO LOCK ITSELF WITHIN ITS BORDERS ANY LONGER"

Erdoğan said, "In today's world, no country can afford to lock itself within its borders. Geographically, there is no option for any country to remain indifferent to the problems in its region."

RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR

Touching on the Russia-Ukraine War, Erdoğan stated that they have taken responsibility from the very first day for peace.

"WE CONDEMN THE MASSACRES IN SUDAN"

Speaking about the developments in the city of El Fasher in North Darfur, Sudan, President Erdoğan said, "I want to draw your attention to this. Despite all the resources, all the technology, and the communication revolution experienced in the last 20 years, if children continue to die from Asia to Africa, we all must question ourselves. I believe you are also following the horrifying images coming from Sudan as both journalists and individuals. No one with a conscience can accept the massacres against civilians in El Fasher, the capital of North Darfur; we cannot remain silent and indifferent. As Turkey, we strongly condemn the atrocities committed against civilians in El Fasher. The attacks in El Fasher and its surroundings must be stopped, and the massacres against innocent civilians must cease immediately. We are ready to fulfill whatever is required by our brotherhood, sincerely and openly. As long as brotherly blood is not shed, as long as innocent children, women, and civilians are not killed. I expect you, our press members, to raise awareness of the plight of our Sudanese brothers to the world and support this struggle."

"THE FAMILY INSTITUTION IS UNDER SERIOUS ATTACK"

Expressing that the family institution is under serious attack, Erdoğan said, "The concept of freedom is being used to legitimize all kinds of immorality. People do not hesitate to expose their privacy just to get a few likes. Deviant movements and unions that disregard human nature are being promoted through digital platforms. Social media channels fuel this process of corruption. Dynamite is being placed under the family institution."

WHAT IS HAPPENING IN SUDAN?

It is reported that the number of people killed by the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF), which have been fighting against the army in Sudan for 2.5 years, has exceeded 2,000 in the city of El Fasher. Those following the developments comment that "RSF militants kill people as if they are playing a game out of personal vengeance." There are numerous images of brutality on social media. The number of people fleeing the city in 48 hours has also reached 250,000.
