Prof. Dr. Celal Şengör could not hold back his tears while talking about Mustafa Kemal Atatürk during a television program he attended. Şengör stated, "Look, my entire family is from Rumelia. My two late grandfathers used to say, 'We are people who lost their homeland. Atatürk gifted us a homeland.'"
Prof. Dr. Celal Şengör was a guest on the program Görkemli Hatıralar (Magnificent Memories) with Serhan Asker, broadcast on Halk TV.
Emotional moments occurred while Şengör was talking about Mustafa Kemal Atatürk on the program.
Unable to hold back his tears, Şengör said, "Look, my entire family is from Rumelia. My two late grandfathers used to say, 'We are people who lost their homeland. Atatürk gifted us a homeland.'
