The President of Türkiye emphasized on Tuesday night that since the UN Security Council cannot decide the fate of humanity, it needs to be reformed.

Iran PressAsia: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the UN Security Council should be reformed because it “cannot determine the fate of humanity”. He announced this at a dinner with ambassadors in Ankara. 

The order that confines the fate of humanity to the say of five countries is not sustainable, said the Turkish president, urging for an "inclusive and encompassing" reform to the UN Security Council.

"The current order, which traps the fate of humanity between the lips of 5 countries, is not sustainable. There is an urgent need for the UNSC to be reformed with an inclusive and encompassing understanding," said Recep Tayyip Erdogan at an iftar dinner held with foreign ambassadors and diplomats in Ankara on Tuesday.

He said Türkiye is now "harvesting the gains" of its entrepreneurial and humanitarian foreign policy, with several countries rushing to extend help to Türkiye after the February 6 earthquakes in the country's south. 219
