On this special occasion, I am delighted to extend my warmest congratulations to the Government of Türkiye and the fraternal Turkish people as we joyfully celebrate the 101st Anniversary of the Foundation of the Republic of Türkiye, our esteemed founding member in the Organization of Turkic States.
Türkiye's remarkable journey over the past century has been one of unwavering progress, resilience, and a steadfast commitment to democratic values. Its visionary statehood, marked by a strong economy and a dedication to fundamental human principles, continues to inspire nations across the globe.
Reflecting on the timeless wisdom of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, who said, "Peace at home, peace in the world," Türkiye’s role as a champion of peace and security has been evident both within its borders and on the global stage. From its foundation, the Republic of Türkiye has risen to embody the principles of liberty and justice, contributing to peace and stability regionally and internationally.
Türkiye also continues to play a pivotal role in strengthening the shared heritage of the Turkic world, promoting cooperation, and advancing our common values. Its contributions to the Turkic world have been invaluable in fostering unity and solidarity.
As we honor the 101st year of Türkiye’s foundation, we are working toward the ongoing realization of the “Turkic Century” vision, a future marked by continued collaboration, progress, and shared success among the Turkic States.
I extend my heartfelt congratulations and best wishes for continued peace, prosperity, and progress to the brotherly Turkish people. In respectful commemoration of the founder of the Republic of Türkiye, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, and his comrades, I reaffirm the enduring bond between our nations.
Ambassador Kubanychbek Omuraliev
Secretary General of the Organization of Turkic States
