Today marks the eighth anniversary of Türkiye's triumph of democracy and the courageous stand of its people and security forces against the treacherous coup attempt by the Fetullahist Terrorist Organization (FETÖ) on 15 July 2016. 

This is another heroic chapter in Türkiye's history, firmly underlining its unwavering commitment to the rule of law and democratic principles. On this very occasion, the entire Turkic world continues to stand with the Republic of Türkiye and its brotherly people.

Taking this opportunity we honor and remember with profound respect all the martyrs who made the ultimate sacrifice during this difficult moment in Türkiye's history.

Ambassador Kubanchbek Omuraliev
Secretary General of the Organization of Turkic States
