The President drew the attention of annual general political debate participants to the instability observed in the world, stressing that Turkey wanted to solve all conflicts.
Erdogan said that chemical weapons still used in the world had killed 2,000 people in Syria. The Turkish leader also emphasized the fact that the international community had not condemned Israeli military action properly in the Gaza Strip, which killed thousands of people, including journalists.
At the end of his speech Erdogan urged to support for Turkey's candidacy for non-permanent membership of the UN Security Council for the 2015-2016 period.
