Ne mutlu Türküm diyene (Turkish pronunciation: [ˈne mutˈɫu ˈtyɾcym dijeˈne]; English: How happy is the one who says I am a Turk) is a motto of the Republic of Turkey, first used by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk in his speech delivered for the 10th Anniversary of the Republic of Turkey ( Republic Day) on 29 October 1933. In 1972, the Turkish Ministry of National Education added this phrase to the Student Oath. [1] [2] This was annulled by the AKP government in 2013, [3] before it was reinstated by the Council of State in 2018. [4] However, the Ministry of Education appealed against the order and the Council of State again repealed the Student Oath in 2021. [5]
