Response of the Greek Foreign Ministry to Turkey: ‘The Muslim minority of Thrace is a religious minority'
"The Muslim Minority of Thrace is a religious minority. The Treaty of Lausanne of 1923, which governs its legal status, does not allow for multiple interpretations, and its religious-not its ethnic-character is indisputable," the Ministry of Foreign Affairs emphasized on Thursday in its response to the Turkish Foreign Ministry regarding the Muslim minority of Thrace.
