I wholeheartedly wish success to my young brothers who will take the LGS exam tomorrow. I hope that the exam will be beneficial for our children, their precious families, and our entire education community. May God give you clarity of mind.

Our gateway to the Balkans and the headquarters of conquests for centuries; Edirne, the center of science, art and architecture… Thank you Edirne! 🇹🇷

Thank God, we restored the Selimiye Mosque, one of the most aesthetic works of not only Turkish-Islamic architecture but also world architecture, in accordance with its original form and reopened it for worship today. Our restoration process, which lasted four years, was the most comprehensive restoration work in Selimiye's 450-year history. From the pencil work to the stone texture, from the interior arrangements to the environmental revitalization, every step was taken to remain faithful to the original work. While old cement applications that damaged the structure were cleaned, reinforcemen…

I remember with mercy and gratitude Aybüke Yalçın, who was murdered by terrorists while performing a lofty profession such as teaching, on the 9th anniversary of her martyrdom. The cherished memory of our daughter Aybüke will always live in our hearts... 🇹🇷

Today we opened the National Security Conferences. I hope that the National Security Conferences, prepared in line with our instructions for the purpose of better understanding our National Security Policy Document, will be successful.

One of the symbols of the silent revolution in state administration centered on national will and civil politics is the change in the duties, structure, functioning and position of our National Security Council. Legal and constitutional regulations have made it possible for the Board and our General Secretariat to carry out their primary missions more effectively, more efficiently and on a basis that complies with democratic standards. Our General Secretariat, which once had to work in a wide range of areas, from the determination of foreign languages ​​to be taught in educational institutions…

Our post-July 15 Iraq and Syria operations broke the glass ceiling placed on our country and started a new era in our security paradigm. Turkey has shown to friends and enemies that it has become a playmaking actor in its region, shaping its own future. This increased self-confidence, courage, planning and ability to act independently lies behind our Terror-Free Turkey process, which we carry out today with our own priorities and methods, and our determined steps extending from the Gulf region to North Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean. Beyond a security policy, the Terror-Free Turkey proce…

We can clearly see the value of the capacity we have when we look at the storm of crisis that surrounds us. Being aware of the responsibilities that history and destiny have placed on us, I hope we will continue to strengthen this capacity both internally and externally.

The Ottoman plane tree has proudly waved our flag in 7 climates. The Republic of Turkey, which replaced the Ottoman Empire, is not our first, but our last state on these lands. The eternal state is our beloved nation itself. As long as the Turkish nation exists, our state will continue to exist.

Let's take a look at where we have come from in terms of summit diplomacy under our governments...

As the AK Party and the People's Alliance, we witnessed once again over the weekend the strength of the bridges of love we have built with our beloved nation. In the by-elections, our AK Party's candidate won in 4 out of 6 towns, and our alliance partner Nationalist Movement Party's candidate won in 1. The People's Alliance achieved a very meaningful election victory. I would like to thank our citizens, who literally burst the ballot boxes, for their favor towards our party and our alliance. Hopefully, we will never let this trust and love go to waste, and we will strive to repay our debt of g…

If you go with this mentality, you will get slapped more by the people at the ballot box...

In the discussions regarding the 38th congress of the CHP, it is the CHP members who organized the congress, who claim that the congress was involved in shady activities, and who take these allegations to the court with their documents and seek their rights. With all due respect, they are the ones who brought the party founded by Gazi Mustafa Kemal to the pavilion tables. Those who say, “I took a bribe, I gave a bribe, I gave this much money to this person” are the same people. Those who label those whom they called "the people's hope" yesterday as "traitors" today are none other than themselv…

As the AK Party movement, our struggle is not with individuals; It is with the CHP's ideology that is the enemy of the people and the enemy of the national will. Our struggle is with fascism enthusiasts who, if they had the chance, would take Turkey back to the darkness of a single party.

In the discussions regarding the 38th congress of the CHP, it is the CHP members who organized the congress, who claim that the congress was involved in shady activities, and who take these allegations to the court with their documents and seek their rights. I am asking for your forgiveness to mention the party founded by Gazi Mustafa Kemal...

While our competitors are busy with their own vicious squabbles, we just mind our business. Hopefully, 2026 will be a year in which Turkey's international reputation and visibility will peak. We attach great importance to the NATO Leaders Summit to be held in Ankara on 7-8 July. The recent announcement that US President Mr. Trump would personally attend the summit was an important step in terms of the cohesion of the Alliance. There is intense interest in the Ankara Summit not only among the allies but also around the world. Following the NATO summit, we will organize the 13th leaders' summit …

Not even a gram of our producer's product will be wasted, and our Soil Products Office will receive all the products brought to it. In addition, the Office will start paying for the product on the 21st day following the delivery of the product. May the new harvest season be beneficial to all our farmers.

We made an important decision to ease the burden of our farmers. We are updating the Basic Support and Planning Support amount we announced for this year, taking into account the extreme increases in input costs that occurred with the Iran crisis, and we are increasing the support amounts accordingly. May it be good and fruitful in advance. Another of our news is about regional development investments. We decided to support 303 projects within the scope of the first call of the Local Development Move Incentive Program that we launched last year. We will accelerate local development and activat…

Just as the whole world is paying the price for the deadlock in Hormuz today, if Israeli banditry is not stopped, the whole region and humanity will suffer the consequences. It is a historical responsibility for other countries in Europe to show the courage and common sense that Spain was able to demonstrate. The blood of the genocide that continues in Gaza today has fallen on those who remain unresponsive. Starting in Iran and Lebanon; Those who remain unresponsive will be responsible for the consequences of this aggression that threatens Syria, the Mediterranean and Africa. Israel must be st…
