No, I disagree - same with countries names. Would be good to not anglicize or Latinize anything anymore. It’s ok if people expand their boundaries and pronunciation skills.
Everyone else continues to call it Turkey, especially newspapers. It’s why the Wikipedia article continues to be called “Turkey”. Neither me nor you are a country or international organization.
Same with Ivory Coast and its official name “Côte d’Ivoire”.

Call the person or thing by what they go/went by.
We recently did it with “Türkiye”.
Guilty as accused.
Türkiye
Thanks for the correction, edited it. Not so hard.
We did not do it with “Türkiye”. Also note that ü is a different letter from u, not just a u with decoration.
The Turkish government requested international organizations to refer to Turkey that way:
