Our Police officers are lionhearted. The efforts of both our soldiers and our police officers against the putschists are very valuable.

Soldiers were dispatched from their quarters on pretext of military exercise. They would have not obeyed orders if they were aware this was an attempt at a coup.

Soldiers would never be part of a military coup, they are pure Anatolian children. They should not obey orders to attack our people.

Our soldiers are reasonable, and they would never take sides with coup plotters. The military respects the votes of our people.

Our people should embrace our soldiers at all times with compassion. Military personnel should not obey orders to kill.

The Turkish army is precious to us; it consists of brave, kind soldiers. But the criminals amongst them will be punished according to the laws.

It is infuriating that the British Deep State thinks Turkey is so easy to destroy. Our people, soldiers are reasonable, brave.

I’m repeating: Subordinates who only followed orders shouldn't be treated as traitors.

Courts will definitely punish the criminals, but it should be kept in mind that subordinates are oblivious to what’s going on.

Subordinates who became involved in this coup attempt should be warned with loudspeakers, should be taken back to their posts safely and they should be treated compassionately.

Frequent calls should be made to call soldiers back to their barracks.

Right now incidents may be ongoing on some places where news has not been relayed; soldiers must immediately withdraw to their barracks.

Turkey is facing a plot of the British Deep State. Soldiers wouldn't fire at people. It is the provocateurs.

Our soldiers would never shoot at our people. Provocators must have been used in this coup attempt.

Our police should lovingly embrace our soldiers, tell them to go back to their posts. They should calm everyone down and restore order.

The soldiers probably were only following orders and had no idea of what they were doing. It is important to approach them with compassion.

Soldiers are also our own; they’re our sons. We will approach them with compassion, the British Deep State shouldn't hold their breath.

The soldiers that took part in this coup attempt should immediately retreat; and the arrested soldiers should be approached with compassion.

There should be no anger towards the soldiers, they should be approached with compassion. This will befit the nobility of our people.

Everyone should act calmly and compassionately now and soldiers should return to their posts.

It would be a mistake to approach soldiers with anger; they only followed the orders. Compassion and love should prevail.

Soldiers are our own sons too; no one should approach them with anger. Necessary legal action will be taken and that will be all.

Neither our army nor police and our people will allow fraternal fighting. Those who are trying to hurt Turkey shouldn't hold their breath.

We don't want anyone to get hurt, we don't want even a single drop of blood to be spilled. Both police and soldiers are our own.

Both our police and soldiers are very precious for us; our country will weather these storms.
