Dear members

 The events in the world and in our country over the last six years are of great concern to us. This process has been negatively affecting our country, especially in the last two and a half years. In this process, we have endeavored to stand strong with the patience and fortitude we have in this process and we have always stood by the side of our state and we have not given up the struggle in a determined manner.

 After all that has happened, on the evening of July 15th, we were all shocked by an uprising within the military that closely concerns the future of our country, our nation and our democratic life. However, with almost a century of Republican achievements and the common sense of our people, this attempt ended in failure.

 We remember the martyrs who lost their lives for this cause with mercy. We will never forget them or let them be forgotten.

 Our state is strong and great. This country will overcome these days as it has overcome many difficulties. This failed attempt, which will go down in the history of democracy as a black stain, will also be remembered as the victory of civil life. No one will be able to prevent Turkey's political and economic development.

 WE, AS ALWAYS, WILL STAND BY OUR STATE WITH GREAT ENTHUSIASM AND DETERMINATION, WORK TIRELESSLY IN UNITY AND SOLIDARITY, PRODUCE AND BENEFIT THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR COUNTRY.

On behalf of Otiad Board of Directors
