She added, "This dear homeland would not have risen but for the sacrifices and efforts of the founding fathers, who gave the utmost endeavors for the foundation of the Union and its advancement, as they sowed its seed, so a tree emerged with ripe fruits, after they watered it with efforts and hard work, and the flag was carried thereafter by distinguished leaders, who worked night and day for its advancement and prosperity; they are the best successor to the best predecessor.
