Turkish nation managed to transform its\u00a0deep experience of modernization efforts that was accumulated in the preceding two centuries\u00a0into a modern, democratic, and secular state.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nToday, we are proud and happy to commemorate the proclamation of our Republic and pay\u00a0tribute to the architects of modern Turkey, notably Mustafa Kemal Atat\u00fcrk, founder of the\u00a0Republic of Turkey. Our unwavering commitment to maintain a democratic, secular, and prosperous country goes unabated.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nThe Republic of Turkey has progressed by overcoming all the difficulties it has faced during\u00a0these 96 years and, thanks to recent breakthroughs in particular, it has now accomplished to\u00a0stand among the rising powers of the world.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nTurkey, with its growing economy, strong democracy, its commitment to fundamental human\u00a0values and principled and visionary foreign policy, continues be an inspiration to its region and\u00a0to the World also today.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nOn the other hand, in recent years, Turkey has faced a number of formidable challenges:<\/h4>\n<h4>A big\u00a0refugee crisis, a violent and bloody coup attempt, murderous attacks by various terrorist\u00a0organizations and ongoing proxy wars on our doorstep.<\/h4>\n<h4>In spite of all these challenges, Turkey\u00a0managed to be an element of stability in its region.\u00a0In order to maintain this stability, we pursue foreign policy which is based on a harmonious\u00a0approach. We prioritize the utilization of relevant instruments to project peace, security, and\u00a0stability in our region and beyond.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nAs the problems in our vicinity have imminent and direct effects on us, we do not have the\u00a0luxury to be idle bystanders. We need to offer solutions through a foreign policy approach that\u00a0is entrepreneurial, pre-emptive, and respectful to principles. Therefore, our foreign policy\u00a0embraces foresight and action.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nWe characterize this concept as \u201centrepreneurial and humanitarian foreign policy\u201d.<br \/>\nWe provide shelter to the biggest number of immigrants and refugees. Turkey pays the most\u00a0expensive price in the world in the face of the cross border consequences of the Syrian conflict.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nWe currently host 3.5 million Syrians. We have paid USD 40 billion so far. Syrian population\u00a0has already outnumbered the local population in some Turkish cities and towns.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nOperation Peace Spring which is launched on 9th of October in North-west Syria was part of\u00a0our efforts to maintain peace and stability in our country. The main objectives of this operation\u00a0was to ensure Turkey\u2019s border security, neutralize terrorists in the region, save Syrians from \u00a0the oppression and cruelty of these terrorists and provide them a safe return to their homeland\u00a0in near future.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nWe intend to continue to our efforts until all terrorists have been wiped out of the region, our\u00a0border security has been ensured, and local Syrians have been liberated from the tyranny of\u00a0PYD\/YPG as well as the DEASH threat.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nPakistan holds a special place for Turkey and Turkish diplomacy. Our relations continue to\u00a0prosper in an era, during which both countries experience multiple turbulences.<\/h4>\n<h4>Our close cooperation within the regional and international platforms is exemplary. We value our strategic\u00a0partnership and special brotherhood ties.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nThroughout the history, our nations have always been with each other thick and thin, and have\u00a0never denied their mutual support. We will continue stand side by side with the people of\u00a0Pakistan in any time of need in the future as well.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nI am confident that the strong relations between our Nations and close cooperation among our\u00a0leaderships will further strengthen in the pursuit of our common interests and values.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nIn light of this sound and dynamic backdrop, our relations will continue to develop and our\u00a0cooperation will sail towards new horizons to the benefit of our two nations.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nTurkey and Pakistan will continue to serve peace, security, and stability in their broader regions.<\/h4>\n<h4>\nHappy 96th anniversary for the proclamation of our Republic.<br \/>\nLong live the Turkish-Pakistani brotherhood!<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>H.E Mustafa Yurdakul -Ambassador of the Republic of Turkey -Message on Republic Day 29 Oct 2019 October 29, 1923 marks the birth of modern Turkey and the victory in Turkish motherland in\u00a0the aftermath of the WWI.\u00a0Proclamation of the Republic represents the launch of the fundamental modernization process\u00a0in Turkey.
