Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan addressed a video message to the event held in Gaziantep regarding the Novruz holiday.
Modern.az reports that the Turkish President congratulated the countries included in the Organization of Turkic States (TDT) on the occasion of the Novruz holiday.
"We gather around the Novruz bonfire with the same feeling in all four corners of the Turkic world. As a step that will further strengthen this solidarity, we have made Novruz a common day for all of us. In 2026, we will host the 13th Summit of TDT countries in Turkey, which will increase the current impetus. On this occasion, I sincerely congratulate all our friends and brothers, from Azerbaijan to Kazakhstan, from Kyrgyzstan to Uzbekistan, from Turkmenistan to the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and Hungary, on the Novruz holiday".
