EU chief visits Orthodox patriarchate in Istanbul
Some good news from Turkey- but I bet that conditions will be attached after the event.
"The president of the European Commission met with Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I in a visit to the Orthodox Patriarchate based in Istanbul on Friday.
Jose Manuel Barroso is on the second day of a three-day visit to Turkey, which is vying for EU membership. On Thursday, Barroso welcomed a Turkish decision to return property, such as school buildings, churches and orphanages, seized from Jewish and Christian foundations decades ago."
