This homeland, on which we live freely, in peace and security, is a trust left to us by our martyrs and veterans.
"WE WILL CONTINUE TO DO WHATEVER IS NECESSARY WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF OUR STATE'S CAPABILITIES, GOD WILLING"
The relatives of our beloved martyrs, who gave their lives and blood to protect the unity and integrity of this country, are entrusted to us. With this understanding, we have so far protected the trusts of our martyrs and our veterans by mobilizing all the capabilities of our state. From now on, we will continue to do whatever is necessary within the framework of our state's capabilities, God willing.
"WE WILL RID TURKEY OF THIS TROUBLE FOR GOOD"
Our Parliament took an important step this week in the Terror-Free Turkey process we are carrying out to rid our country of the scourge of terrorism. Turkey has reached this stage above all thanks to the heroic struggle of the nation's sons, the fortitude of your families, and the successes our state has achieved in the defense industry, especially in recent years. With patience, common sense, and composure, we will, God willing, rid Turkey of this trouble for good."
