President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan extended his congratulations to Christian citizens on the occasion of Easter in a message he issued.
In his message, President Erdoğan stated:
“I extend my congratulations to our Christian citizens and to the Christian world on the occasion of Easter.
At a time when discrimination, cultural racism, and intolerance are increasingly on the rise, the unity, solidarity, and mutual support demonstrated by all our citizens, regardless of their faith, continue to set an example for the entire world.
We are determined to further strengthen this climate of peace, which we regard as the guarantee of our social harmony, particularly during this painful and challenging period our region is going through.
With these sentiments, I once again congratulate the Christian world, especially our Christian citizens, with whom we have lived together under the same sky for centuries and will, inshallah, continue to live in unity and solidarity forever, on the occasion of Easter, and I wish it to bring peace, stability, and prosperity to our region and the world.”
