In this historic process, conducted with the unique foresight of Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, a great victory was achieved before the international community thanks to the sharp intellect of İsmet İnönü at the diplomatic table.
With this treaty, our independence was legally recognized; the title deed of the Republic of Turkey was signed.
I commemorate all our heroes who fought to achieve this unique success with respect and gratitude.
Lausanne is not just a document; it is the guarantee of our sovereignty, our honorable future, and peace.
It is the responsibility of all of us to protect this great legacy."
