In October 2025, during a meeting between President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House, the new address of Hüseyin Günay, who was removed from his position as NTV Washington Representative due to an unrecorded conversation containing profanity, has been revealed.
HE BECAME THE EUROPEAN REPRESENTATIVE OF HALK TV
The General Director of Halk TV, Suat Toktaş, announced that Günay will now serve as the European representative within the channel. Toktaş wrote on his social media account, "Halk TV will now also raise its voice from Europe. Hüseyin Günay has stepped into his new life in London with Halk TV. With 20 years of journalistic experience, he will now serve as the Halk TV European Representative."
Günay, quoting Toktaş's post, stated, "Greetings, good luck to everyone. I am at Halk TV. I am happy and excited. I will be watching Europe from the ground. See you on screen soon."
WHAT HAD HAPPENED?
While President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and U.S. President Donald Trump were meeting in the Oval Office, Günay's words, chatting with a colleague in the White House garden, were caught by the Associated Press (AP) camera that was live at that moment. After Günay's comments, which included profanity, circulated on social media, NTV management dismissed Hüseyin Günay.
