WE UNDERSTAND OUR LEADER BETTER TODAY

On the 85th anniversary of the passing of our Republic's Founder and Great Leader, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, we deeply feel the pain of his loss and the greatness of his precious memory.

We understand Atatürk much better today, as he led the struggle to free our homeland from enemy occupation, founded our republic, and implemented reforms that elevated our country to the level of contemporary civilizations.

Believing that the most important legacy left to us by Atatürk, who holds an eternal place in the hearts of our nation through his achievements and has earned the world's admiration for his military genius and vision, is the republic itself.

We will continue to work and produce with determination and great enthusiasm to make our country more prosperous, honoring Atatürk's most significant legacy.

With these feelings and thoughts, we commemorate the 85th anniversary of the eternal farewell of our Republic's Founder, Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, with mercy, respect, and gratitude.
