Erdoğan to travel to Germany to watch Turkey-Netherlands match

President and AKP Chairman Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has canceled his Azerbaijan program to support the A National Football Team, which advanced to the quarter-finals of the 2024 European Championship.

Erdoğan was scheduled to attend the Organization of Turkic States Informal Summit of Heads of State to be held in Shusha, Azerbaijan, on Saturday, July 6.

However, it has been learned that President Erdoğan will travel to Germany on Saturday evening to watch the Turkey-Netherlands match.

Erdoğan had called the A National Football Team on the phone last Monday evening to congratulate them after they defeated Austria 2-1 to advance to the quarter-finals. 

Furthermore, it is believed that the investigation launched by UEFA into Merih Demiral was a factor in Erdoğan's decision.
