According to the secretary-general, the Turkish prime minister has forged a major campaign that placed Turkey among the world’s leading countries, economically and industrially.
“His unyielding position on various Islamic and global issues, particularly the rights of the Palestinian people, has gained him the respect and admiration of the entire Islamic world and the international community at large,” he added.
