Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding educational issues of the Muslim Minority (02.08.2021)
Turkey distorts reality with unfounded accusations and fake news. The Greek side rejects these accusations. Greece, unlike Turkey, continues to fully implement the provisions of the Treaty of Lausanne. The numbers speak for themselves. The Muslim minority in Thrace numbers approximately 120,000 members. The Greek minority in Turkey has shrunk to just 3,000 members; while the two minorities were equal in number at the time the Treaty of Lausanne was signed. For the academic year 2021-2022, more than 100 minority primary schools will operate in Thrace while only three will operate in Istanbul. With regards to what is stated in the relevant press release of the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it is noted that, as is known, the criterion for suspending the operation of schools in Greece is the non-completion of a minimum number of nine students. In addition to the 12 minority schools, another 24 public primary schools were suspended in the region of Eastern Macedonia and Thrace alone; a fact that highlights equal and not discriminatory treatment of minority students in Greece. Moreover, the recent legislation of the Ministry of Education and Religious Affairs concerned public schools, while specific legislation regarding minority schools was introduced with a view to ensuring the respect of the Treaty of Lausanne and, of course, taking into account the specific nature of these schools. This legislation does not introduce any discrimination against minority schools but instead fulfills Greece's obligation to maintain their special status. The Hellenic Republic, a state governed by the rule of law, fully protects and guarantees the human rights and freedoms of all its citizens. Turkey ranks second worst regarding the non-execution of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) judgements, with 643 judgements pending implementation.

Fear of refugees must not shape the response to Afghanistan’s crisis
Western leaders are panicking about a new surge in migration. But we can – and should – help those fleeing the Taliban Two defining images of 2021 depict people fleeing. One is the sight of people desperately chasing after a US air force jet along the runway at Kabul airport, as the west’s 20-year occupation of Afghanistan came to an end. The other is of passengers, evacuated from a forest fire on the Greek island of Evia, watching from the deck of a ferry as the skyline is etched in apocalyptic red. In both cases they tell us about the speed at which people have to abandon everything when disaster strikes – there is rarely time for an orderly queue, for correct papers and possessions, when you are forced to flee – and about the power held by those who control the routes to safety.
