Pres. Erdogan: Türkiye's Diplomatic Vision for Justice and Prosperity

The world has been facing an unrelenting wave of growing uncertainties and challenges for an extended period of time. Conflicts, lawlessness, terrorist attacks, pandemics, climate disasters, and deepening injustice and inequality are placing immense pressure on the current international order. In response, Türkiye acts with a vision that, without compromising its foreign policy approach centered on the principles of justice, peace, and solidarity, navigates comprehensive, complex, and deeply painful crises while safeguarding both its own security and the shared future of humanity. Our long-standing call, grounded in the principle that "The world is bigger than five," goes beyond a mere critique of the existing global order; it represents a vision for the common future of humanity.

The United Nations, established in the aftermath of the Second World War to maintain peace and security, is regrettably no longer able to fulfil its core function in the face of today's crises and conflicts. The Security Council, the principal body of the UN, which was founded on the claims of justice and equality, has been confined to the will and interests of merely five countries in its decision-making regarding the regional and global crises. This unjust structure, which is among the primary sources of the deadlocks of our time, urgently needs to be reformed, so that the UN can indeed be a functioning center of effective multilateralism in line with its founding principles and we can produce just solutions to global challenges.
