@DrOzdinler I would like to add this. The word `Middle East` is invented by the British and has no historical validity. Türkiye is not in the Middle East. Especially culturally, Türkiye is predominantly a Balkan country.

I just appreciate Ataturk more on days like this. How could he build a democracy right in the middle of middle east in the 1920s when no one even knew what it meant to self govern and be free. We need more Ataturks in the world.
