Hasan Kalyoncu University (HKU) Rector Prof. Dr. Türkay Dereli published a message on the occasion of “29 October Republic Day”.
Rector Prof. Dr. Türkay Dereli included the following statements in his message:
“Exactly 99 years ago, our nation declared to the whole world, under the leadership of Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, that it would never give up its independence. The spirit that carried our War of Independence to the most blessed victory of the age and gave life to our Republic and our glorious flag still stands tall today. As Hasan Kalyoncu University (HKU), with the same spirit, we are working with all our strength, and will continue to work, to contribute to our country’s success in every field, above all in education and research.
We remember with mercy and gratitude the founder of our Republic, which illuminates the future of our nation, Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and his comrades-in-arms above all, and all our martyrs who sacrificed their lives without hesitation for our homeland and flag, and we remember our veterans with gratitude.
Happy 29 October Republic Day!”
