Events were held in Western Thrace on the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the 15 July Democracy and National Unity Day of the Turkish nation, which won a great victory against the coup attempt on 15 July 2016 by the members of the Fethullahist Terrorist Organization, who wanted to infiltrate the Turkish Armed Forces and divide the homeland of Turkey.

After the Consul General Murat Ömeroğlu, Consul Neslihan Altan and Deputy Consul İbrahim Işık greeted the guests at the entrance gate of the consulate, the commemoration event started.
