DE Secretary-General Erkam Tufan Aytay reported that the need for
international ethics for terrorism will be emphasized and the message
of peace will be sent to the world at the symposium. At the conference

belief values, which in essence aim for peace, are used as excuses for
some conflicts and even for terrorist acts from time to time today,
just as they were in the past." It is planned that discussions will be
held on two important points during the conference, which is organized
with the cooperation of the Russian Science Academy Oriental Studies
Institute and PIAR Association:
1. Will different religions and cultures be able to co-exist in a
continually global world by showing tolerance and sympathy towards
one another?
2. Will religions be represented by those who indulge in terrorist
acts and incite hatred under the name of religious faith or by those
who support love and tolerance under the name of faith?

activities as part of the DE Platform, which has arranged activities
