July 15 is the unshakable unity of these two powers, the homeland and the nation.” He emphasized that the strong will demonstrated that night was not a coincidence but a concrete manifestation of love for the homeland and the nation, and that it is vitally important to keep this consciousness alive and pass it on to each new generation with the same determination.
