One year ago the Turkish Republic experienced a coup attempt on the night of July 15. As we expressed in a statement which was published in the international media immediately after the attempted coup: “Interventions against democracy can only be prevented by further raising democratic standards and strengthening the rule of law.” Security and freedom are not mutually exclusive, on the contrary, they are fundamental priorities that complement one another.

58 CEOs and Presidents of Business Associations call upon the G20 to take decisive actions in shaping globalization.

The most effective sources for displaying Turkey’s political and economic strength in the world are the qualities of democracy, rule of law, and freedoms.
