(Kathimerini) Turkey’s foreign minister has repeated claims about Greece’s Muslim minority that Athens has criticized in the past.
Chairing the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Council of Foreign Ministers during the group’s Annual Coordination Meeting held on the sidelines of the 80th UN General Assembly in New York on Friday, Hakan Fidan said “the Cyprus issue and the situation of the Muslim Turkish minority in Western Thrace [sic] remain two key priorities in Turkish foreign policy,” as reported by Turkish state news agency Anadolu.
Fidan called on OIC member states to support the rights of Turkish Cypriots and to establish direct contact with them.
