Speaking at the program attended by approximately 10 thousand people, Düzce Governor Mehmet Makas said, "On July 15, with the recruitments they bought with their own agents that they have brought among us in the last 200-300 years, it is as if you cannot do it, you cannot do it, the west does the best, you grow potatoes, you plant beans, you do not leave your village, we will produce the technology, we will produce the planes, guns, guns, you buy from us, you will be our market and you will be governed by the colonial governors we appointed." "There was an imposition, but this nation stood up under the leadership of its own leaders and woke up and realized that it was the son of a lion, the grandchild of the Ottomans, and that it should rule the world again," he said.
