In recent years the world has been seeing "the bitterest examples" showing how the so-called great powers and global organizations under their influence benefit no one, said Türkiye's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday.
"We are witnessing the most tragic examples of how so-called great states and the international organizations they control do no good to anyone," Erdogan said at an election rally in Türkiye's central Aksaray province.
The president said tensions in the region are escalating everywhere from the Balkans to the Caucasus, citing the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, which has intensified in recent months, as well as Israel's atrocities on people in the Gaza Strip, hitting the old and young alike, and both men and women.
Erdogan has decried the impotence of many international bodies, in particular the UN Security Council, in tackling international crises, pointing to its exceedingly unrepresentative makeup as one culprit.
