The determination, diligence and devotion of our youth to their country constitute one of the most important pillars of the goal of a powerful and great Türkiye. The achievements they demonstrate in science, technology, sports and every sphere of life give us even greater hope for the future.
I commemorate with mercy and gratitude all the heroes of our National Struggle, especially Ghazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, and extend my congratulations on the 19 May Commemoration of Atatürk, Youth and Sports Day.”
