Prime Minister Binali Yildirim spoke at opening session of TRT World Forum. The highlights of Yildirim's speech are as follows:
TRT World was founded to inform people of truth by making right news, voice of those who could not hear voice. TRT World was born in a sense to appeal to current media conception. I would like to express as a member of a country and a political movement that has been subjected to great injustice in journalism, and it is enough to give truth and only truth in journalism.
Turkey's mission is to serve truth, voice of oppressed, mind and conscience. We are witnessing that TRT World is doing best in a global way. Turkey, which unites continents with bonds of brorhood, which spans vast geography with history of civilization, will continue to act as conscience of world.
Advertising bomb attack in SomaliaI wish God mercy to all our brors who lost ir lives in this brutal terror attack. I am fiercely cursing this vile terror incident.
Our activities are not limited to our own territoryWe see that terror and wars are becoming increasingly widespread in world. In addition to radicalisation, we are witnessing that currents such as foreign hostility have begun to increase especially in developed countries. Moreover, it is a distinct concern that radicalisation wave has begun in Europe, where we think democracies are developed.
In recent years, we see that current political area of immigrants and foreign hostility in Europe has been under influence. This confirms concerns we have actually raised for a while. Taking into consideration se developments, Turkey continues to pursue its understanding of inclusive and embracing policy. As much as we're worried about Syria, we don't neglect Arakan's troubles. We are running for help of Somalia, as we run to aid of Palestine.
AdOur activities are not limited to our own territory in Turkey. In world where re is trouble for people, if re is a catastrophe, who needs help, re is no time to lose, Turkish charities and Red Bear, AFAD, Tika and all civil society organizations are ready to grow immediately . In a sense, Turkey continues to be conscience of world. Where re is a bleeding wound, we fulfill historical responsibility of our civilization, which our values have uploaded to us.
We must never give opportunity to nurture radical ideologiesUnfortunately, racism, xenophobia, Islamic hostility and or discrimination that are rising and expanding in our age make people more and more divided and fragile communities. It is necessary to develop a container language that rises on values based on respect and tolerance against such tendencies. We should never give opportunities to tendencies that nurture violent extremism and radical ideologies.
