PRESIDENT'S COLUMN
When will our state be honest and fair?
05.03.2025
Dear readers, On 28 February 2023, on the second anniversary of the Tempi train crash in which 57 people were killed and many injured, protest marches were held across the country and many trade unions went on a 24-hour strike. Among the protests organised in more than 300 cities in our country and abroad, 430 thousand people attended a...
We continue to walk steadily on a long and thin road!
27.01.2025
Dear readers, It is the anniversary of the events of 29 January 1988. 37 years ago, on 29 January, Western Thrace Turks from seven to seventy, from villagers to townspeople were on the streets. Why? To show our existence against those who say that there are no ‘‘Turks’’! Why? To say ‘‘Enou...
Spin the ball in education!
03.01.2025
Dear readers, We have left 2024 behind... I hope you welcomed the new year with your loved ones in a joyful way; you had a cheerful New Year’s Eve in the warmth of family. As a community, unfortunately, in the last days of December, education was again on our agenda. The rulers of our country made statements as i...
May 2025 bring hope to us and the world!
26.11.2024
Dear readers, We have reached the end of another year, and we are preparing to say goodbye to 2024. As you can see, the Russia-Ukraine war continues on our continent, and the tension of the war has increased in recent days. Unfortunately, it seems that the war will continue in 2025 and taking into account the events in the Midd...
We won’t be duped!
05.11.2024
Dear readers, For some reason, the moderate and calm atmosphere due to the positive relations between our country Greece and our motherland Türkiye disturbs some circles in our region. On 11 October, let us remember what happened during the Friday prayers at the Aşağımahalle Çınar Mosque in Xanthi. Our congregation,...
What makes Greece different from Germany or Hungary?
27.09.2024
Dear readers, The 75th Anniversary Congress of the Federal Union of European Nationalities (FUEN), the largest umbrella organisation of national minorities in Europe, took place last week in Husum, Germany. The host of this year’s Congress of the FUEN family, of which we have been a member since 2007, was the North Frisians, the smalles...
Is it asking too much to live a free, fair and prosperous life?
28.08.2024
Dear readers, Another summer vacation has passed. Unfortunately, our country has experienced wildfires again due to the scorching heat of summer, and many green areas have turned to ash. In our region, small-scale fires broke out, but thankfully they were brought under control quickly. On the other hand, as announced before each academi...
It has never been easy to exist with our Turkish identity, it will never be!
23.07.2024
Dear readers, Following the success of the Friendship, Equality and Peace (FEP) Party in the European Parliament, attacks against us, especially against the FEP Party, have increased. Although these attacks are not by those who govern our country, the atmosphere in our country has become very tense. They say that FEP, which declares ...
Enough! You are making our country a laughing stock in the European family!
17.06.2024
Dear readers, We have left the European Parliament elections behind us again. In these elections, we showed that we are ‘‘Turks’’ with the votes we casted for our party, and we proved our existence in the region to the government and the entire public with the votes our party received. First, I congratulate the FEP ...
Let’s all go to the polls and cast our vote for FEP!
24.05.2024
Dear readers, European Parliament elections will be held across the EU on 6-9 June. In our country Greece, the polls will be held on June 9 for the EP elections. We will also go to the polls and support our FEP Party, which is participating in the EP elections for the third time. Elections are held every 5 years to determine 705 Members...
