Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan emphasized today, Saturday, that the place of war criminals is not at the United Nations platform but in the courtrooms that judge them for the crimes they have committed.

Erdoğan stated in a speech during an event in Istanbul, followed by the News Video Agency, that the place of the criminals who committed war crimes is not at the platform of the international organization, marking his first direct official comment on Benjamin Netanyahu's speech at the United Nations.

He explained that failing to hold perpetrators of genocide accountable before justice, law, and history means repeating the same brutality.

He continued that the global system has reached a dead end in legitimacy, representation, and justice.
