Numan Kurtulmuş discusses Turkey model and regional peace

Turkish Grand National Assembly Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş has emphasized the necessity of a new regional social contract to achieve lasting peace in the Middle East. Speaking at an event organized by the Middle East Studies Center (ORSAM) and Oxford University, Kurtulmuş stated that Turkey must act as a proactive solution provider rather than a mere observer of global and regional shifts.

Kurtulmuş highlighted that the world is transitioning toward a multipolar system, noting that multipolarity alone does not guarantee justice without the constraints of international law. He stressed that regional stability requires protecting the dignity and rights of all peoples involved.

Regarding domestic policy, Kurtulmuş described the “Terror-free Turkey” process as a major project for the second century of the Republic. He noted that the process has reached a highly positive stage following the passage of the Law on Strengthening National Solidarity and Social Integration, which received support from 467 members of parliament. To oversee this process, Kurtulmuş is visiting political party groups, including the CHP and the Yeni Yol group, to discuss the establishment of a parliamentary Monitoring Commission.
