Happy International Day of Peace, 21 September!

On 21 September, the International Day of Peace, we wish peace and brotherhood to all humanity, as our great leader Mustafa Kemal Atatürk expressed in his words, “Peace at home, peace in the world.” We hope for an end to the ongoing conflicts in the world, particularly the Israeli-Palestinian and Russian-Ukrainian wars. Peace is the fundamental pillar of the existence and sustainability of our tourism sector; for in a region without peace, the development of tourism and all other sectors is impossible. We mark this special day with the wish that the wars and violence continuing in every corner of the world will come to an end, and that the suffering and despair of all people and living beings will cease.

To protect our future and to ensure social peace, we must act hand in hand to cultivate solidarity, tranquility and justice instead of war and violence. The International Day of Peace, 21 September, reminds us that we must take one more step toward making peace a global value. Together, we can build a more just, sustainable and equal world.
