“ I obtained information concerning Mustafa Kemal from someone who knows him very well. When talking with Foreign Minister Litvinov of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, he said that in his opinion, the most valuable and interesting statesman in all of Europe does not live in Europe today, but beyond the Bosphorus, he lives in Ankara, and that this was the President of the Turkish Republic, Gazi Mustafa Kemal Ataturk .” Franklin D.

Some of student flats' neighbours denounced their trouble about this situation to the security forces and governor. So, we have to control the flats as a gouvernment. Some newspapers, journalist or people wrote something about this, whatever they want to write.. In the world, nothing to explain this educational problem.
