Teddy Indra Wijaya Dispels Rumors of Erdogan‘s ‘Walk Out’ During Prabowo’s D-8 Summit Speech
In a recent turn of events, Sekretaris Kabinet (Setkab) Teddy Indra Wijaya addressed the viral rumors surrounding President Tukri Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s alleged "walk out" during President Prabowo Subianto‘s speech at the D-8 Summit in Cairo, Egypt. Teddy, speaking on Monday, December 23, 2024, categorically denied the claims, stating, "No, that didn’t happen."
According to Teddy, the sequence of events was as follows: President Prabowo was scheduled to be the first speaker in the session, with the session expected to conclude at 12:30 PM local time. However, the session ended only at 2:30 PM due to extended discussions. The second session began at 3:00 PM.
Prior to the second session, Erdogan and Prabowo had lunch together, sitting side by side. Erdogan then requested to give his speech first as he needed to leave the plenary early. Teddy, who was present at the event, explained that Erdogan opened the second session with his speech, apologizing for his early departure. Only then did President Prabowo begin his speech.
Social media videos showed Prabowo starting his speech with a greeting before several delegates, including Erdogan, left the room through the back of Prabowo’s seat. In his speech, Prabowo touched on themes including the division of Muslim nations and the Palestinian issue, urging unity among Muslim countries to have a stronger voice.
Teddy’s clarification sheds light on the misconceptions surrounding the event, highlighting the importance of accurate information in the digital age.
