President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on July 11 commemorated the victims of the Srebrenica genocide on its 31st anniversary, saying Türkiye would never forget the massacre.
“On the 31st anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide, one of the most brutal genocides in history, I remember with sorrow and mercy all our Bosniak brothers and sisters who were massacred,” Erdoğan said in a social media post.
“I respectfully honor the cherished memory of our martyrs and pray for patience and strength for their families and loved ones. We will never forget Srebrenica,” he said.
