Successful actor Engin Altan Düzyatan will represent Turkey at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Baku, Azerbaijan. The actor's representation of Turkey at the summit has sparked controversy.
The 29th session of the United Nations Climate Summit will be held in the capital of Azerbaijan, Baku. The summit, which will take place from November 11th to November 24th, will be attended by scientists and politicians from every country. Engin Altan Düzyatan, who gained fame with his success in the series "Çöp Adam" and "Diriliş Ertuğrul", will also attend the summit to represent Turkey.
"WHY IS AN ACTOR PLAYING THE ROLE OF A SULTAN INSTEAD OF AN EXPERT REPRESENTING US?"
Engin Altan Düzyatan's representation of Turkey at the summit has sparked reactions. One of the first comments came from Özgür Demirtaş. Demirtaş criticized Düzyatan's presence at this event, saying, "I have a clear question: Does Engin Altan Düzyatan have:
1) Any education on climate change?
2) Any expertise on the subject?
3) Any qualifications?
Why isn't an expert in this field representing our country instead of an actor who portrays a sultan in TV series?" Engin Altan Düzyatan has not yet made a statement regarding the criticisms. He has previously participated in several events organized by the United Nations.
