Turkey’s Vision for the G20

January 22, 2015

Speaking in the context of Turkey’s presidency of the G20, Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu told participants at the World Economic Forum’s 45th Annual Meeting that his country’s priorities are an inclusive approach to global growth, implementation of the decisions taken by the G20, and investment and trade. “If we tackle the issues with a shared sense of responsibility, we will send a strong message” he said. Davutoğlu told participants that Turkey is continuing to play the role of mediator and bridge-builder: “Turkey is well-placed to play this role because of its impressive economic achievements, self-confidence and democratic credentials”.

The G20, which represents countries that account for more than 70% of global GDP, provides an unprecedented platform for policy coordination, he said. Over the next 12 months the goal is not only to lay the foundations for more robust growth but also to include the perspective of low-income developing countries, extending cooperation to include food security and nutrition.
