Erdogan was scheduled to attend an informal summit of Turkish heads of state in Shusha, Azerbaijan, but decided to cancel his participation. He will be replaced by Deputy President Sevedet Yilmaz.

After the soccer match in Germany, Erdogan will travel to the United States to attend the NATO leaders’ summit in Washington on July 9-11.

Football-loving President Erdogan has been closely monitoring Crescent-Stars’ Euro 2024 journey since the start. The Turkish leader has been personally calling the team after every match, giving motivational and congratulatory messages.
