As diplomatic activity intensifies in New York during the 81st United Nations General Assembly, the Turkish House has been transformed into a major showcase promoting Türkiye’s hosting of COP31. A large banner featuring President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has been installed on the facade of the landmark building in Manhattan.
The banner carries the message, “Türkiye, where the world unites for climate,” highlighting the 31st United Nations Climate Change Conference, which will be held in Antalya.
