DEM Party member Ahmet Türk, who recently watched the Mardinspor-Kahramanmaraşspor match alongside Mardin Governor Tuncay Akkoyun, who was appointed as a trustee in his place, made a post regarding Amedspor, the Diyarbakır representative that promoted to the Super League.
Türk's post, which read, "I am very happy, a team from Kurdistan has promoted to the Super League, I wish them success," sparked reactions.
The harshest reaction came from Mustafa Destici, Chairman of the Great Unity Party (BBP), a minor partner in the People's Alliance.
Destici stated, "What Kurdistan, damn it! This is the Republic of Turkey. If you don't like it, you can get out."
What Kurdistan, damn it!
