State Bahçeli, head of the Nationalist Movement Party in Turkey, spoke up on his Twitter account after anti-government chants were heard online.
New clips circulating during the 23rd week of the domestic league show fans at the Fenerbahçe versus Konyaspor game, which finished 4-0, calling for the government to resign. Bahçeli responded by proposing that matches should be held without spectators in certain situations.
He added that if similar calls occur during future fixtures such as Galatasaray-Alanyaspor and Beşiktaş-Alanyaspor, it would appear the clubs are caught in a difficult position.
There is also commentary on the timing of elections in Turkey, with officials reportedly reevaluating plans for a May vote in light of a major earthquake disaster that caused widespread devastation. Authorities have indicated a possible shift toward a later summer election schedule as part of ongoing political adjustments.
