Mr Cavusoglu had raised the same question in mid-April during a parade on a wide range of subjects with his Greek counterpart, Nikos Dendias, during a stormy press conference in Ankara. “You do not allow the Turkish minority to call themselves Turkish. You call them Muslims», Objected Mr. Cavusoglu. “If they call themselves Turkish, they are Turkish – you have to admit it», He added for Mr. Dendias, who had for his part relayed the deep dissatisfaction of Greece with the transformation by Turkey, last year, of the Saint Sophia Cathedral from a museum to a mosque .

Turkish Foreign Minister is due in Athens on Sunday afternoon and will be received on Monday by Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and his counterpart Nikos Dendias in an effort to maintain dialogue after deteriorating relations between the two countries .
