To earn a place in the hearts is to leave a silent mark on souls; The true story is written not with the fleeting echo of words, but with actions.

Our country was founded under war conditions and challenging circumstances on October 29, 1923, with the declaration of the Republic. Under the command of Atatürk and his comrades, hundreds of thousands of martyrs have fallen from those days to today. From Edirne to Kars, every stone and soil of our sacred homeland is entrusted to us from our children to us, from yesterday to tomorrow.

The essence of our unity and togetherness lies in our shared sorrows and collective achievements.

Protecting together, standing together; equal education, equal healthcare services, income justice, the supremacy of law, and justice are our core values that will carry our country into the future.

The Republic of Turkey, with its 86 million population, is the homeland of us all.

In the light of the history written with the blood of our ancestors who risked and sacrificed their lives to cleanse our land from imperialists 101 years ago, we will continue to illuminate the path to the future…

As Ahmet Arif said:

We will not fall down, No one will be so sad, so forsaken.

Wherever it may be, Inside, outside, in class, in line, We will march on - face on, We will spit on the face of the executioner, Of the opportunist, the corrupt, the traitor…

We will hold on with books, We will hold on with work.

With nails, with teeth, With hope, with love, with dreams We will endure.

We will disgrace no one.

Long live the Republic…
