Full Summary of Fethullah Gülen’s Death and Its Reactions

Fethullah Gülen, a prominent Turkish cleric and the alleged leader of the FETÖ organization, has been confirmed dead in the United States. His death has prompted significant reactions from the Turkish government and key figures. Gülen, a controversial figure in Turkish politics, has been living in exile in the U.S. since 1999. He has been accused by the Turkish authorities of masterminding the failed coup attempt in Turkey in 2016, which led to a significant crackdown on FETÖ-related individuals and organizations.

Turkish officials have responded to Gülen’s death with a firm stance. Minister of Foreign Affairs, Hakan Fidan, emphasized that this event would not weaken Turkey's resolve to combat FETÖ activities, reflecting the ongoing tension between the Turkish government and the Gülen movement. Justice Minister Tunç also stated that the efforts to eradicate FETÖ will continue with the same determination.

The news of Gülen’s passing has also been confirmed by prominent figures like Hakan Şükür, a former Turkish football star who has connections with the Gülen movement. Gülen’s death raises questions about the future of the FETÖ organization and its impact on Turkey’s political landscape.
