Cumhuriyet Bayramı kutlu olsun! 🇹🇷

Today, #STRIKFORNATO 🔱 joins Türkiye 🇹🇷 in celebrating Republic Day, commemorating the proclamation of the Republic of Türkiye on 29 October 1923 and the values of independence, sovereignty and national unity that continue to define the nation.

Türkiye’s 🇹🇷 unique position at the crossroads of Europe, Asia and the surrounding seas makes it a vital contributor to @NATO’s security. At sea, its naval forces regularly train, deploy and operate alongside Allied maritime forces, bringing proven capability and readiness to NATO activities and exercises.
