UEFA announced that it has opened an investigation into Merih Demiral, who made the “Grey Wolf” sign while celebrating a goal in the match where our National Football Team eliminated Austria and advanced to the quarter-finals of EURO 2024. German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser had made statements saying, “Turkish far-right symbols should have no place in stadiums.”
Strong Reaction from AK Party Spokesperson Çelik
AK Party Spokesperson Ömer Çelik, in a statement he made on his social media account, reacted strongly to German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser and UEFA. Çelik said, “The statement made by German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser targeting our national football player Merih Demiral’s goal celebration and the investigation launched by UEFA are unacceptable. It would be more appropriate for those looking for racism and fascism to focus on the election results in “different countries in Europe.”
