Upon leaving the Friday prayer and after a journalist’s question about when the meeting of the Supreme Strategic Council of Greece-Turkey will be held, the Turkish President answered:
“At the beginning of next year we will hold this meeting of the Supreme Strategic Council. At the moment, Mr. Chagatai, who holds the position of ambassador, continues his talks with his counterpart. And as a result of his talks with his counterpart, we will probably be able to meet early next year.”
Regarding the topics discussed during the bilateral meeting between the two leaders, Recep Tayyip Erdogan said:We gave weight both to this Supreme Strategic Council and to the certain known difficulties we are experiencing in the Aegean. And the prime minister told us that he will put these issues on the table and that he will solve this problem.”
Erdogan’s desire for Turkey to become a permanent member of the UN Security Council
Previously, Tayyip Erdogan, responding to a related question, expressed his country’s desire to become a permanent member of the UN Security Council and criticized the existing structure of the international organization and the behavior of the current permanent members of the Council.
Specifically, the Turkish President stated: “In the UN there are five permanent members and 15 temporary members (note that the non-permanent members of the SA are ten). All decisions depend on the words that will come from the lips of these permanent members. The 15 temporary members have no influence here. These five members are almost in a position to rule the world. Therefore, members like Japan, China, us and Germany etc. although they are trying to become permanent members, they cannot have any influence because they are not currently permanent members.
» As Turkey, we are now trying to become a permanent member, but so far we have not received any results. Permanent members also do not intend to make us a permanent member. The 15 temporary members have nothing to do at this point.”
