He said, “The July Uprising is an unforgettable example of the united efforts and sacrifices of the student masses for the purpose of justice in national life and restoration of democracy. This collective effort paved the way for our rights. I gratefully remember those whose hard work and sacrifice will be a milestone in the history of the nation.”
“The mass uprising of 24 is not only for political change, but also marked as a victory of courage, determination and unity of the student community and the common people.

Are we able to dedicate ourselves to the service of the country? Let us take an oath on this day that we will fulfill our duties more faithfully.
