BALI, Indonesia (AA) – The G-20 has a “key role” to play in global health policies, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Tuesday.

“Humanity needs political leadership and determination in terms of health policies,” Erdogan said during a session on health at the G-20 Leaders’ Summit being held on the Indonesian resort island of Bali.

“The G-20 has a key role in this regard,” he asserted.

Erdogan emphasized the need for G-20 countries to take a holistic approach in efforts to bolster global health systems and avert future disease outbreaks.

“The research and development cooperation process initiated by the G-20 presidency of Indonesia and supported by Türkiye and six other members will undoubtedly be beneficial,” he said.

“Türkiye has actively contributed to global efforts with a human-centered approach during the pandemic,” he added.

Erdogan pointed out that Türkiye “attached special importance to the needs of disadvantaged groups.”

“We maintained uninterrupted access to health services for the 5 million refugees we host in our country,” he said.

Türkiye helped 161 countries and 12 international organizations in the fight against COVID-19, and donated more than 6.3 million doses of vaccines to 19 countries, Erdogan added.
