AK Party Aydın Provincial Chairman Mehmet Erdem published a message on the occasion of July 15 Democracy and National Unity Day.
In his message, Erdem reminded that on the night of July 15, 2016, we were faced with a treacherous coup attempt against the will, democracy and independence of the nation.
Stating that this attempt carried out by the Fetullah Terrorist Organization (FETO) was eliminated thanks to the epic resistance shown by the nation under the leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, Erdem said:
"That night, upon the call of our President, we took to the squares with our citizens all over our country, as in Aydın, and defended democracy despite tanks, weapons and all threats. July 15 is a historical turning point where our nation's commitment to its homeland, flag and independence was declared to the whole world. As AK Party organizations, we will continue our activities in line with our Turkey Century goals, without recognizing any power over the will of the nation. July 15 should not be forgotten, should not be forgotten, and will not be forgotten in the future." "It is our common responsibility to pass it on to the next generations in the right way."
Mehmet Erdem expressed his gratitude to all martyrs and veterans on the anniversary of July 15 Democracy and National Unity Day.
