Ankara: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan plans to travel to Berlin to attend the 2024 European Championship quarterfinal game between Turkiye and the Netherlands, an official said on Thursday.
Erdogan was scheduled to attend a meeting in Azerbaijan on Saturday but has decided to travel to Berlin instead to support the national team, an official said. Vice-President Cevdet Yilmaz would represent the Turkish leader in Azerbaijan. The official spoke on condition of anonymity, because he was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
