World famous pop singer Madonna will travel on 24th of April to the Kurdish city Amed, known among Kurds as the capital of Kurdistan. She will give a concert in the football stadium of Amed reported the Kurdish news portal Azady.nl based in Holland.
Madonna won’t ask money and the Kurdish public can see her without paying.
The costs will be paid by the municipality of Amed.
Osman Baydemir, the mayor of the Kurdish town said he has met her week ago when he visited America. There they talked about Amed and the Kurdish people. Together they decided that Madonna would perform in Amed.
According to the Kurdish website Madonna want to show her support for the Kurdish people with this concert.
Due to high economic underdevelopment, lack of resources, unemployment and poverty, tourists, western artists and businessmen normally visit Turkish cities like Ankara and Istanbul or other tourist resorts in West-Turkey.
This is the first time that an American superstar will visit Northern-Kurdistan (Southeast-Turkey).
