Erdogan Honors Canakkale Victory on 111th Anniversary

(MENAFN) Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday marked the Canakkale Victory, achieved during the Gallipoli campaign of the Ottoman Empire in World War I.

“Canakkale is a unique epic in which not only a battle, but also faith, sacrifice, love of homeland, and the consciousness of being a nation were proclaimed to the entire world,” Erdogan stated in a message commemorating the 111th anniversary of March 18 Martyrs’ Remembrance Day and the Canakkale Naval Victory.

Shared by the Communications Directorate, his message emphasized that the anniversary is observed with great pride and heartfelt emotion.

Remembering with respect, gratitude, and admiration "the heroes who made Canakkale impassable," Erdogan said: “The struggle carried out in Canakkale by hearts full of faith became a historical turning point and a sign that our nation would never give up its freedom and independence.”

He highlighted that "heroes from all corners of Anatolia" rushed to the front to defend their homeland, and that citizens—men and women, young and old—“became one heart and defended their land at the cost of their lives.” Erdogan added: “This great resistance demonstrated by our ancestors not only changed the fate of our homeland but also that of oppressed nations living under persecution around the world. The heroism displayed in Canakkale is one of the strongest symbols of our nation’s brotherhood, solidarity, and shared destiny.”
