There is a story of a nation that was resurrected thanks to its martyrs who said 'Let me die and let my country live'. Our strength is the national will, our goal is the great Turkey. We believe that July 15 is a turning point for Turkey. Because this vile attack was an invasion attempt beyond a coup. July 15 was the greatest danger our country has faced since the War of Independence. He At night, the Fetullah Terrorist Organization attempted to seize the state and dominate the nation. The main purpose of the coup attempt was to drag our country into a chaos unprecedented in our history and to plunge Türkiye into a civil war. Thank God, our nation stopped this trouble and discord against our democracy and freedom. He stood upright against the deliberate attack and defended his national values at the expense of his life. We wrote an epic together with the determined stance of our President, our Veteran Parliament, our Prime Minister, our political parties, our nation, our non-governmental organizations and our media. We remember the martyrs of democracy and our veterans who wrote the epic of July 15, we will not forget July 15, we will not let our country experience such days again." - ERZURUM
