Türkiye's envoy to the Vatican, Fahrettin Altun, said religion and diplomacy can help humanity overcome its differences without resorting to hostility, according to Anadolu Agency.
Altun called for what he described as "commonality without uniformity," emphasizing human dignity and dialogue as foundational principles for building peace between different communities and nations.
The remarks were framed around the idea that shared values can be pursued without requiring uniform beliefs or practices, a theme often raised in discussions of interfaith and international diplomacy.
Anadolu Agency's report did not specify the setting in which Altun made the comments or whether they were part of a formal address, meeting, or written statement.
Türkiye has maintained diplomatic representation at the Vatican as part of its broader engagement with religious and international institutions on matters of global dialogue.
