Erdoğan addresses UN General Assembly on Gaza, UN reform, and Turkey-US relations FAST-MOVING

During the 81st UN General Assembly in New York, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan delivered a major address focusing on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the need for international reform. He described Gaza as the ‘most inhumane and shameful concentration camp of our age’ and the ‘world’s largest child cemetery,’ calling for increased international pressure on Israel.

Erdoğan also advocated for structural changes to the United Nations, stating ‘the world is bigger than five’ in reference to the UN Security Council. He urged countries that have not yet recognized the State of Palestine to reconsider their positions and emphasized the importance of a two-state solution based on 1967 borders.

On bilateral relations, Erdoğan highlighted the strengthening ties between Turkey and the United States, particularly in defense and energy. He noted that Turkey’s defense industry exports have surpassed $10 billion and expressed a desire to overcome existing obstacles to deepen cooperation within NATO and bilaterally. Trade Minister Ömer Bolat added that the Turkey-US trade volume, which exceeded $38 billion last year, could reach $50 billion within two years.

Additionally, Erdoğan addressed the Cyprus issue, calling for an end to the isolation of Northern Cyprus and advocating for a two-state solution based on sovereign equality. He also proposed an international conference to resolve tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean.
