Erdoğan vows 'Terror-Free Türkiye' at Malazgirt commemorations

President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan attended the 955th anniversary of the Battle of Malazgirt in Muş, where he emphasized a commitment to a 'Terror-Free Türkiye' and a peaceful region. Using the historical metaphor 'we have tied our horse's tail,' Erdoğan signaled an irreversible determination to protect national security and territorial integrity against external pressures and regional instability.

In related security developments, Interior Minister Mustafa Çiftçi presided over a rank promotion ceremony for 56 Jandarma personnel, reiterating the government's resolve to eliminate terrorism from the national agenda. Additionally, Minister Göktaş highlighted social welfare efforts, noting that 25 billion lira has been distributed to over 1.2 million children through birth assistance programs.

Various regional and economic leaders also marked the historical occasion. The President of the Samsun Chamber of Commerce, Salih Zeki Murzioğlu, linked historical victories to the necessity of modern economic independence, while Communications Director Burhanettin Duran emphasized the importance of national unity in the face of regional challenges.
