Kenan Dogulu, this year's Turkish ambassador to Helsinki, stopped briefly in Athens on his way to Dusseldorf. There, we had the chance to catch up with him and talk about everything you would like to know about him.
Kenan is not interested in second place. He says he is going to Helsinki to win. He tells us how people told him not to get involved with the contest but that he already feels he has received an award by being appointed by TRT.
Kenan also speaks about his plans for an international career, tells us how he logs on to check out the competition and talks about the poems he writes.
