Germany and Turkey are embroiled in a diplomatic row following a controversial 'wolf salute' goal celebration by Turkish footballer Merih Demiral during the Euro 2024. The gesture, associated with Turkish ultra-nationalism, led Germany to summon Turkey's ambassador in Berlin, while Turkey retaliated by summoning the German ambassador in Ankara.
The incident has attracted widespread attention, prompting UEFA to launch an investigation into the celebration for its potential far-right connotations.
This diplomatic spat comes ahead of a planned visit by Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan to Berlin, further complicating relations between the two nations amidst the ongoing European Championship.
