WHAT DOES THE REPUTE OF 104 SUPERVISORS 'REPORT?

The declaration, signed by 103 retired admirals, included the following statements regarding the discussions on the Montreux Convention:

"To the Almighty Turkish Nation,

Recently, it is alarmed that the Montreux Convention has been opened for discussion within the scope of the authority to cancel both the Canal Istanbul and the International Treaties.

The Turkish Straits are one of the most important waterways in the world and have been governed by multinational treaties throughout history. The last of this treaty and the Montreux protect the rights of Turkey in the best way; Not only that governs the passage through the Turkish Straits, Turkey to Istanbul, Çanakkale, Marmara Sea and restoring full sovereignty over the Strait is a major diplomatic victory completed the Lausanne Peace Treaty. Montreux is the basic document of the security of the Black Sea riparian countries and is the contract that makes the Black Sea a sea of ​​peace.

Montreux, Turkey in any war is a contract that prevents unintentional war on the side of one of the warring parties. Montreux, Turkey II. It enabled him to maintain his neutrality in World War II. For these and similar reasons, an important place in Turkey's survival made to the discussion of the Montreux Convention / table that could lead to all kinds of discourse and we think that action should be avoided.

On the other hand; Some unacceptable images, news and discussions in the press and social media have been a source of deep sorrow for those of us who have devoted their lives to this profession. In recent years, TAF and especially our Naval Forces; It experienced a very deliberate attack by FETO and sacrificed its valuable staff to these treacherous conspiracies. The most important lesson to be learned from these calipers; It is a necessity for the TSK to diligently maintain the fundamental values ​​of the constitution, which cannot be changed and cannot be proposed to be changed.

For these reasons, we condemn our efforts to show our TSK and Naval Forces out of these values ​​and away from the contemporary route that Atatürk drew, and we oppose with all our existence. Otherwise, the Republic of Turkey, which are instances in history, will be able to encounter the most dangerous events, risks and threats to life and survival for the depressed.

It is essential to train the personnel of the Naval Forces Command, who have a glorious past that emerges from the bosom of the Turkish Nation and who are the protectors of the Mother and Blue Homeland, in line with Atatürk's principles and revolutions. We stand by our long-lasting Turkish Sailors who work devotedly in every corner of our country at sea, on land, in the air, in the internal security zone and beyond the border, and who work with heart and soul to protect our rights and interests in the Blue Homeland.

We commemorate our Sea Martyrs and announce them with respect. "
