President Recep Tayyip Erdogan made the remarks at the 12th Ambassador Conference held in the capital Ankara, Anadolu Agency reported.
The Turkish president Erdogan called for a change of approach in times when the current global system is failing to respond to crises occurring all around world, especially amid the coronavirus outbreak.
Stressing the existing global system favored a handful of strong actors over righteous masses and rich over poor people, the president said this system could no longer continue and systematic change was needed.
The world came to a new crossroads with the emergence of the outbreak, the president said, noting that international organizations failed to respond to the ongoing crises, which exposed their inertia in the wake of the pandemic.
Erdogan, who had coined “the world is bigger than five” slogan at a UN gathering, said a new establishment based on justice, not power, has to be regulated in order to ensure safety and stability of the common future of human beings.
The Turkish leader also called on the EU to abandon its “strategic blindness”, which he said was pushing Ankara away from the EU and reiterated his call for organizing a multinational conference including all littoral countries along with the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus in the Eastern Mediterranean to resolve the dispute.
