The ceremony began with the laying of a wreath at the Atatürk bust by our Rector, Prof. Dr. Hasan Bülent Kahraman, together with Board of Trustees Member Mehmet Erbelger. In the speeches delivered, the enduring legacy of this great victory was once again emphasized.
Inspired by Atatürk’s words, “Victory belongs to those who can say victory is mine,” we reaffirmed our commitment to sovereignty, independence, and the founding principles of the Republic. We remember the founder of our Republic, the Great Leader Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, and his heroic comrades-in-arms with respect and gratitude.
Happy 30 August Victory Day!
