Every year, on 10 November, the Republic of Türkiye observes Atatürk Commemoration Day, marking the anniversary of the passing of Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder and first President of the Republic of Türkiye, in 1938.
This day serves as an occasion to honour his memory and reflect on his historic role in the establishment of the Republic and the shaping of modern Türkiye.
Atatürk’s legacy is closely associated with the struggle for national independence, the establishment of republican institutions, and the pursuit of progress and modernization. His vision and leadership remain an important part of Türkiye’s national history and continue to hold a significant place in the collective memory of its people.
TURKPA pays tribute to the memory of Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and recognizes the enduring significance of his historical legacy, which represents an important chapter in the history of the brotherly Turkish people and the wider Turkic World.
