Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, President, addresses the general debate of the 77th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 20-26 September 2022). The President of Türkiye, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, said that the agreement on the resumption of Ukrainian grain exports via the Black Sea “is one of the greatest achievements of the United Nations in recent decades.” Speaking today (20 Sep) at the General Assembly’s General Debate, Erdoğan said that one of the big lessons we have learned from the pandemic was to establish international solidarity in resolving global threats. He observed that the global economy, already hit by disruptions in the supply chains caused by the pandemic, is facing yet another new shock wave due to the Russia-Ukraine war. The Turkish President added, “This is the 21st century, and we have reached the highest extent of financial and technological opportunities. However, in this day and age, still, one-fifth of the world population is crippled at the hands of poverty and poverty.” He reiterated, “This is the day and age where we need to shed light on our path, and that can only be possible through international cooperation and solidarity. And we need to assume a just and fair approach toward one another. We need to move together against the challenges that identify our common faith.” Erdoğan stated, “we think that the war will never have a triumph and a fair peace process would not have a loser. This is important because we have always underlined the significance of diplomacy in dispute settlement through dialogue once and for all. That’s why we got together with the parties at the Antalya Diplomacy Forum and then in Istanbul to become facilitators in a reconciliation process.” He continued, “As a result of the heavy efforts we carried out together with the Secretary-General, we managed to export Ukrainian grain through the Black Sea, finding its way into the rest of the global market. Istanbul Convention that allowed this export I still very much vital. And the exports are gaining momentum as time goes by. This is a critical agreement that was undertaken jointly with the United Nations, and this is one of the greatest achievements of the United Nations in recent decades.” The President of Türkiye also said, “This is going to be a turning point for us all and to remember our common responsibilities, we have been stating that the world is greater than five and that a fair world is still possible.” ---------------------------------------- Watch this video in the Original Language Spoken: https://youtu.be/NmvxGglPf_w مشاهدة هذا الفيديو باللغة العربية على موقع البث الشبكي للأمم المتحدة 请在联合国网络电视（UN Web TV）观看中文版视频 Regardez cette vidéo en français sur UN Web TV Vean este video en español en UN Web TV Смотрите это видео на русском на UN Web TV https://media.un.org/en/asset/k1p/k1pa37ap72 Screenshot credit: UN Photo/Cia Pak #UNGA #UnitedNations
