The Greek President made the statements during his meeting with his Bulgarian counterpart Rumen Radev in Athens, Friday. Turkey’s move to recite the Quran in the UNESCO-designated museum caused an uproar with reactions coming fast by UNESCO, the US State Department and the Greek Foreign Ministry, who called on Turkey to show respect.
