Çetin's speech, which became a topic of discussion, is as follows:

Mr. President, as your excellency has stated, we did not come to be masters of this nation, but to be its servants. Mr. President, Mr. Commander-in-Chief, I express my gratitude to your excellency for not withholding your support from us in providing the personnel, vehicles, equipment, materials, and all kinds of resources necessary for the Gendarmerie General Command and the Coast Guard Command to successfully carry out their duties.
