NEW YORK (AA) - Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's call for UN reform is displayed across the streets of New York as the city hosts world leaders and diplomats for the 79th session of the UN General Assembly.

Mottos such as "Beyond Five: Building a Global System for Everyone," "A Global System Beyond Five: A Fairer Future for Everyone," "A Reformed UN for a Fairer World," "Türkiye: A Partner in Humanitarian Aid and Sustainable Development," "For a Fair World, Together in Every Step," and "Building Bridges of Humanity for a Better Tomorrow" were showcased on digital screen trucks throughout the city.

Türkiye's Directorate of Communications coordinated the projection of visuals highlighting Türkiye's calls for UN reform.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan first introduced the phrase "The world is bigger than five" in 2013, referring to the five permanent members of the UN Security Council. Türkiye has argued that the veto power held by these five countries undermines the effectiveness of the United Nations.
