Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has emphasized the critical need for reforms in global governance, asserting that the United Nations has demonstrated inefficacy in resolving conflicts around the world.
These comments came during a meeting with Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva at the G20 Summit in Rio de Janeiro, as reported by Türkiye's directorate of communications.
Erdogan, known for his strong criticisms of Israel’s actions in Gaza, lauded Brazil for its position “against Israeli aggression” and outlined Türkiye's diplomatic initiatives at the UN. These initiatives include urging the halt of arms sales to Israel, ensuring continuous humanitarian aid to Gaza, establishing a permanent ceasefire in the area, and pursuing a two-state solution.
He expressed that “the United Nations has failed to avert conflicts worldwide, particularly in Gaza, and has proven insufficient in addressing crises.” Erdogan also praised Brazil for its initiative in “bringing up ‘Global Governance Reform’ during its G20 presidency.”
He has consistently called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, where Israeli military actions have resulted in at least 43,000 deaths. In Israel, over 1,100 people were killed in the Hamas-led attacks on October 7 of the previous year, with more than 200 taken hostage.
The upcoming G20 Leaders’ Summit in Brazil, scheduled for November 18-19, is being characterized by organizers as a “fundamental event for the future of global governance.” The summit's agenda will prioritize the reform of international institutions, the advancement of energy transitions, and the promotion of global social inclusion.
One session will specifically focus on global governance reforms, which are a key element of Brazil's G20 presidency. Heads of state will engage in discussions about modernizing essential international institutions, such as the UN, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, and World Trade Organization.
