Turkey “has offended the global community, regardless of nationality, past and religious beliefs,” with its decision to turn Hagia Sophia into a mosque, Foreign Minister Nikos Dendias said in an interview with Alpha TV earlier on Thursday, according to ANA.
“What Turkey is doing is completely contrary to the legal status of Unesco as regards monuments,” he said, adding that the largest trap Turkey could lead Greece into would be to turn the Hagia Sophia issue into a Greek-Turkish problem.
