On November 10, 1984, I was at the Atatürk Commemoration Ceremony with my elementary school friends…
After all these years, today, on May 19, 2026, we are in the presence of our Atatürk with the same respect, the same devotion, and the same pride.
It also gives me great pride to have brought a new Atatürk bust to our region, replacing the one that served us for so many years.
Happy May 19th Atatürk Commemoration, Youth and Sports Day to all our people, especially our youth.
