The 30th of August is celebrated in Turkey as Victory Day. On this day, we commemorate the decisive victory in the Great Offensive, which marked the end of the Turkish War of Independence and secured our nation's sovereignty. We honour the memory of our heroes who fought valiantly for freedom and independence, ensuring a future of peace and prosperity for generations to come.

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk emphasised the importance of unity and resilience, not just within a nation but among all nations. He believed that the pursuit of peace and the defence of freedom are universal responsibilities, reminding us that:

"Victory is for those who can say 'Victory is mine.' Success is for those who can begin saying 'I will succeed' and say 'I have succeeded' in the end."
