We commemorate the great leader Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of our Republic and the leader of our struggle for independence, on the 88th anniversary of his passing, with deep respect, gratitude and remembrance.

Atatürk was not only a great commander and statesman who led a nation to independence, but also an exceptional leader whose vision, grounded in reason, science, education and modernity, continues to guide future generations.

The Republic, which he described as his greatest achievement, is one of the most precious legacies entrusted to us. Preserving this legacy, upholding the fundamental values of the Republic and passing them on to future generations are our shared responsibilities.

As the Cyprus Evkaf Administration, drawing strength from our deep-rooted history, we remain committed to preserving our shared values, safeguarding our cultural heritage and passing it on to future generations.

We remember Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, whose ideas continue to illuminate our path, with eternal respect and gratitude.
