Addressing the TRT World Forum 2022, President Erdoğan said: “No one can any longer afford to turn a blind eye to the problems in any part of the world, withhold their support or postpone their contributions to the solution. All must share the burden for the welfare of humanity’s common future. In this spirit, we work to sincerely fulfil our responsibilities regarding regional and global issues.”
President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan delivered a speech at the TRT World Forum 2022.
Extending his welcome to the participants of the Forum from 34 different countries as well as from inside Türkiye, President Erdoğan said it is pleasing that this year’s forum is being held face-to-face after having taken place online for two years due to the pandemic.
“TRT WORLD FORUM HAS BEEN RAISING THE BAR HIGHER AND HIGHER EVERY PASSING YEAR”
The Forum, the sixth of which is occurring now, has turned into an important platform for humanitarian, social and diplomatic interaction on a global scale, said the President. “Every year through this platform, many experts get the opportunity to share their treasured views on economy, politics, security, technology and international relations with participants. The exchanges of views conducted under themes that correctly reflect the globe’s pulse contribute to the solution of the issues faced by humanity.”
Discussions held at the Forum are truly inspiring not only for communications industry professionals but also for politicians that have the responsibility to govern the state, said the President. “I believe that the TRT World Forum, which generates significant gains for our country and region as well as the whole world, raises the bar higher and higher every passing year. I would like to thank in advance all the people of science, media and politics that come from abroad or within the country and enrich the Forum with their expertise.”
“ALL MUST SHARE THE BURDEN FOR THE WELFARE OF HUMANITY’S COMMON FUTURE”
Recalling that this year’s Forum takes place amid heightened global tension due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war, President Erdoğan said: “If we take a look, we see that 60% of global crises and stabilities occur in Türkiye’s near environ. In this respect, I find it appropriate for the theme of the Forum to have been determined as ‘Mapping the Future: Uncertainties, Realities & Opportunities’. I hope the discussions to be held under this theme for the next two days may yield analyses that help address uncertainties.”
“I, as the President of Türkiye, would like to underline the following point,” said President Erdoğan, “No one can any longer afford to turn a blind eye to the problems in any part of the world, withhold their support or postpone their contributions to the solution. All must share the burden for the welfare of humanity’s common future. In this spirit, we work to sincerely fulfil our responsibilities regarding regional and global issues.”
