Our country has entered a new and historic phase in its long-standing struggle against terrorism. Under the leadership of our President, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, with the firm will of our state and the unwavering support of our people, Türkiye is resolutely moving out of the shadow of terror toward a brighter future.
This process is not merely a matter of security; it is a monumental step toward national unity, social peace, and regional stability. These steps taken for the safety and welfare of every citizen offer great hope for our collective future.
As we remember our martyrs with mercy, gratitude, and respect, this journey—empowered by the determination of our veterans and the resilience of our nation—is opening the gates of a Türkiye remembered not for terrorism, but for brotherhood, solidarity, and progress.
We wholeheartedly commend and support everyone contributing to this sacred goal—our state institutions, political leadership, and civil society organizations.
Together, without hesitation and with determination...
We will continue to advance on the path toward a "Terror-Free Türkiye."
May these efforts inshaallah revive the thousand-year-old bonds of love, as expressed by Bediüzzaman Said Nursi:
“The Turks are our mind, and we are their strength. Together, we form a good person. We shall not act selfishly. With our resolve, we will set an example to other groups. This is how a good son behaves. If we once obeyed with a small weight under despotism, now a thousandfold obedience and unity is obligatory. For now, we will see only benefit. Because constitutional government is true legitimate rule.”
“In short: there is strength in unity, life in union, happiness in brotherhood, and safety in obedience to the government. It is essential to cling tightly to the strong rope of unity and the chain of love.”
Asar-ı Bediyye / Bediuzzaman
We firmly believe that the unity of Turks, Kurds, and Arabs will open the path of love that leads humanity to salvation, peace, and fraternity.
Respectfully announced to the public.
