15 Temmuz Demokrasi ve Milli Birlik Gunu Logo
Every year on July 15th, Turkey commemorates 15 Temmuz Demokrasi ve Milli Birlik Günü (15th of July Democracy and National Unity Day), a momentous day etched in the nation's memory. This national holiday serves as a stark reminder of the attempted coup d'état that unfolded in 2016, and a celebration of the collective courage and resilience displayed by the Turkish people in their unwavering defense of democracy. On that fateful night, citizens rose up against the forces seeking to undermine their freedom, demonstrating the unwavering spirit of unity and love for their nation. This day pays homage to the 248 lives lost in the fight for democracy and honors the bravery of all those who stood firm against tyranny. 15 Temmuz Demokrasi ve Milli Birlik Günü serves as a constant reminder that the values of democracy, unity, and freedom must always be vigilantly protected.
