I would like to express my gratitude to all members of parliament who served our country under the roof of this great institution since its establishment. I pay my respects to the memory of all deceased members of parliament who served this Assembly since its establishment in 1920.FOR TRKYE INDEPENDENCE AND PROGRESS REPRESENT A RIGHTEOUS STRUGGLE THAT EXTENDS ACROSS TIMEI respectfully commemorate the first Speaker of the Grand National Assembly the founder of our Republic Ghazi Mustafa Kemal as well as all others who worked hard for the development growth and strengthening of Trkiye. I salute all martyrs and veterans who courageously sacrificed their lives in the last one thousand years to defend our homeland the unity of our nation the territorial integrity of our country and the continuation of our state.For Trkiye independence and progress represent a righteous struggle that extends across time. We continue to wage the same struggle today both within and beyond our borders. I wish the best to our soldiers policemen gendarmerie coast guard intelligence officers and security guards who resolutely defend our country against the enemy in particular the terrorist organizations.I pray to Allah for protection. May He spare them as well as all members of our nation. The Grand National Assembly of Trkiye has assumed a leading role since the beginning of our national struggle to address issues facing our country and to meet the expectations of our people.Today our Assembly continues to fulfill its historic role with the laws enacted during the 27th Term the draft bills pending before the commissions and the General Assembly as well as other work planned for the future.Today we begin the final legislative year of the 27th Term of the Parliament. I believe that our Assembly will make excellent progress during this legislative year by enacting many critical laws before interrupting its work for the election calendar.WE WORK TOGETHER WITH THE LEGISLATURE THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH AND THE JUDICIARY TOGETHER AND PROCEED ON OUR CHOSEN PATHIn about 8 months Trkiye will elect the members of the Grand National Assembly and the President who represents executive power. Elections will take place at a time of historic change both in the world and in our region as centuries-old balances of power are shaken to the core and political economic and military power centers shift.I believe that as the Members of Parliament of the 27th Term your success in achieving your mission is deeply appreciated by our nation. This great honor will be your greatest legacy to your children. I would like to express my gratitude to each and every one of you personally for your service to our country nation and the Grand National Assembly. I would also like to thank the political party groups and the Bureau of the Speaker of the Assembly for their contribution to the work of the Assembly both in the commissions and the general assembly.Our Assembly has a unique place among other parliaments in the world as a veteran of our national struggle and more recently of the July 15 coup attempt. In the past it was alleged that our country did not internalize democracy because democracy was established without paying a price. However the Grand National Assembly of Trkiye stands before us today as a beacon for very ambitious democratic and development programs in the last 25 years.We have before us an Assembly which resisted coup plotters and unequivocally confirmed the supremacy of national will. We have before us an Assembly that valiantly defends the rights and interests of the nation it represents in the face of all manner of threats. We have before us an Assembly that distinguishes itself against global trends by maintaining deep ties with the nation. These are some of the reasons why our parliament and members have to endure slanderous attacks from time to time.Those who want to treat Trkiye like a colony and their political and economic satellite are not pleased with the dignified stance of our Assembly. However we do not pay attention to who says what or who wants what rather we focus on what our nation needs. We aim to achieve the goals of our country by ensuring that the legislature the executive branch and the judiciary work together and proceed on our chosen path.THIS PARLIAMENT HAS UNDERTAKEN THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL REFORMS IN THE HISTORY OF THE REPUBLICThis Parliament has undertaken the most fundamental reforms in the history of the Republic. One of the most important reforms regarding our independence and future is undoubtedly the change that we introduced in the system of government. I believe that the Presidential System of Government strengthened all democratic powers and made them more effective and efficient.
