Töre’s Conference in Kırşehir: Resisting Imperialists and Colonialists
President of the Republic Assembly Zorlu Töre continues his diplomatic visits and conferences in Kırşehir, Turkey. Recently, he gave a significant conference at Ahi Evran University on the topic of “The rightful struggle of the Turkish Cypriots from past to present”.
The conference was attended by various officials including Kırşehir Governor Hüdayar Mete Buhara, provincial administrators, university administration, academicians, and students. It took place at the University’s Congress and Culture Center, the 15 July National Will Hall. The event began with a moment of silence and the national anthem, followed by a video showcasing the struggle of Turkish Cypriots on the island.
During his speech, President Töre emphasized the importance of protecting the sovereignty and independence of the Turkish world. He addressed calls from international circles for the withdrawal of Turkish soldiers from Cyprus and restrictions on seismic research in the Eastern Mediterranean, reaffirming that the rights and interests of the Turkish people in Cyprus will always be safeguarded in unity with the Motherland.
President Töre criticized the international community for its failure to address the attacks and injustices faced by Turkish Cypriots throughout history, emphasizing that Turkey and the Turkish army serve as the ultimate guarantee for their protection. He declared that the Cyprus cause is not just the concern of Turkish Cypriots but also the entire Turkish world.
In his concluding remarks, President Töre stressed the importance of preserving ancestral, national, and spiritual values to prevent deception. Following the conference, he was honored with the Distinguished Service Award by the University administration.
Additionally, President Töre paid his respects at the Martyrs Cemetery, specifically visiting the grave of Martyr Air Pilot Petty Officer Sergeant Ahmet Tozluklu. He laid flowers on the martyrs’ graves, offered prayers, and met with the families of the fallen heroes at the Martyr Families and Combat Veterans Association.
After completing his engagements in Ankara and Kırşehir, President Töre is scheduled to return to the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) tomorrow afternoon. His visit and conference have reaffirmed the strong bond and unwavering support between Turkey and the Turkish Cypriot community.
