He also emphasized that the Red Crescent is a symbol of unity between the state and the nation, and has played a crucial role in conducting humanitarian aid activities worldwide for an impressive 155 years.
Erdogan reminded his fellow citizens that protecting the Red Crescent is not only a collective responsibility of all 85 million Turks but also a duty. He firmly emphasized that the Red Crescent should not be undermined due to political interests. He further urged Red Crescent members to recognize the significant responsibility they bear when carrying out their duties.
Erdogan expressed his unwavering support and belief in the organization's future success, and assured Red Crescent staff and volunteers at all levels that they would always stand by their side in their noble services.
In conclusion, the Turkish President offered a prayer for the humanitarian workers who lost their lives while serving humanity. This tribute reflected Erdogan's deep respect and gratitude for their selfless contributions.
At this critical juncture, Erdogan's call to safeguard the Red Crescent from political interests serves as a reminder that certain institutions must transcend politics for the greater good of humanity. (ILKHA)
