Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding issues related to the Muslim Minority of Thrace (16.09.2022)

Türkiye, once again, is attempting to interfere in the internal affairs of another state, in violation of fundamental rules of international conduct.

Greece is a state governed by the Rule of Law; it respects International Law and fully abides by its international obligations under International Conventions such as the Lausanne Treaty -unlike Türkiye.

We do not accept exhortations from third countries like Türkiye, particularly when it comes to Greek citizens.
