i am Turkish, i was student in China, and i broke up my fiancee and far away from my family. the one who understand me and condole me always were my two greek friends, they have become more than a friend to me. they always were around me whenever i felt bad. i love greek people. they are humble and honorable people. i feel deep connection with greek people inside my heart...
We would like you to stop what you’re doing!If you don’t want us to have army on our islands stop doing what you’re doing!As long as you provocate either with you shitty planes or with your silly statements from you governors,we shall be friends!You voted for erdogan and you have a large portion of responsibility in term of our relationship!
Italians, Greeks and Turks are great people with great cultures. I feel honored that we Albanians have participated and shared land and culture with all three of them and today we are very close culturally to all three. Hence we have all three religions (among others) and we are proud of that.
Grazie per il tuo commento, mi sento onorato a nome dell'Italia e del passato comune che unisce questi tre popoli, compresi i gravi conflitti che hanno avuto tra di loro. Vorrei che più italiani fossero consapevoli di questa storia e cultura condivisa tra questi tre popoli che hai citato, di cui sono grande ammiratore.
Whoever gets in your arm without knowing who you are, just to describe an address, is Mediterranean. The warmth... As an Aegean( a subset of Mediterranean) raised man, it's beyond nationalities I think.🙂 Nowadays trying to establish a new life in Germany, olive oil unites us wherever we are. 💚💙🤍♥️
Only Turks from Western Turkey are culturally close to Greeks and Italians, Turks from Central Anatolia and Eastern Turkey not that much, they are much closer to Iranians, secondly Greeks don’t have a tea culture for example, Greek influence can be seen in our cuisine, ancient Turks didn’t know sea food, we adopted that from the Greeks, there is also a major Persian/Arabic influence on our cuisine which in return we passed to the Greeks. It seems you really don’t know Turkey or Turkish people that well my friend, stop comparing us Turks to Greeks, Albanians or Italians, we are a unique nation in our own right. Our culture is a mix of different past civilizations who once inhabited Asia Minor. Every region in Turkey is different.
It warms my heart to see how so many Greeks and Turks in the comments love and appreciate each other. As a Korean, Greece-Turkey always reminds me of Korea-Japan. Korea and Japan also share a long and often complicated history like Greece-Turkey, but despite that, most Koreans and Japanese don't harbor any negative feelings towards each other and love visiting each other's countries and appreciating their culture (Kpop, Anime). Even if governments quarrel, I hope that the people can continue appreciating each other regardless of that.
I love both countries and I'm glad to hear that!! I started watching old Japanese films but then Kdrama came to my life and I was hooked. I hold a deep appreciation, respect and admiration for your cultures. Greeks don't want any conflict with Turkish people, we all want to live peacefully. Greetings to lovely Korea ❤❤
안녕하세요~ you are so right. As a Turkish i don’t, we don’t want any bad relationship with any country. And it warms us how they sent help so quickly at the earthquake time🤍 we can not or won’t forget the kidness also huge and big thanks to Korea🫰🏻 you guys supported us. We are so grateful and never forget🙏🏻 We really see koreans as a brother and we are sincere about that. 🇰🇷🤍🇹🇷
I believe in most cases despite the history, most people just want peace with each other. It's our governments that we don't know their intention. I'm Greek-American and in the US I see the government trying to divide the people using different tactics. Let's not let the government or others divide us. Btw, Greece & Korea also have another similar history in that we both experienced having junta-military dictatorship. Though Korea had it for many more years. After watching Youth of May, I realized many more lives were lost in Korea trying to fight it. I'm also a kdrama fan, much love from Greece.
I'm Greek, I live close to the Turkish border and I've met many many Turks visiting my country. I've never ever seen any hatred by the Turks. I visited Andrianople (Edirne) many times, everything was very normal, Turks were very friendly to us. I lived both in Germany, and the USA. Turks are the same over there, very friendly. In those countries, Turks were the first to run and help us in case of need - we did the same. I grew up as a kid with the idea that Turks are enemies, and since then everywhere I've been they are extremely friendly people especially when they learn you are a Greek. Now, my son, who is a teenager, has grown without any bad feelings about Turkey - I hope this generation will be the first to be clean from hatred and finally we can all be friends.
I am turk! I can say the same for Greeks. Last year in 2021, I had a holiday in Greece and the people were very nice to me! When I told them that I'm from turkey, everybody said the same: we are not enemies! Everybody was nice and friendly to me! Plus as a character we (Greeks and Turks) are very similar population :D greetings to greece and dont care about the politic!!!!
@@kadirulas7881 similar from what freakin aspect my friend? Because the turks that I saw in Turkey, as well as in every single video about Turkey, are too oriental to be similar to us. But i would be greatful to hear of how a middle eastern country is similar to a southern european one also, did you expect them to tell you that they see you as an enemy, while you came here to leave your beautiful money? Guys, use your brain for a while. People are always friendly to tourists, wherever they come from, as they live from tourism
@@snowman9452 Dude, don't worry I use my brain more than enough! I am a Software Engineer and plus businessman and I am not stupid to see the things which is silly or not! Anyway, similarity means in this case like behaviour, food etc. I can give you an example: I live in Vienna and there is a lot of greek communities and have got many greek friends they are also very temperament like us and guest friendly! But your target is that you don't want Greeks and Turks to be in the same category but the truth is we are similar, even if you don't want to acceTurkey is very large country and there is a lot of ethnics therefore I would say east part of turkey is oriental where the most of kurds are living. Middle Anatolia is very conservative and little bit oriental but west, north and south parts (coasts) of turkey are not like this! That is true and you are definitely right. As a tourist everybody would be nice to me! but you can distinguish the behaviours of people! Just go to Scandinavians, Slav Countries or Germany as a tourist then you would see the difference!
@@kadirulas7881 by just saying that we are similar, we are not going to become similar, you know. If you think so, and you "use brain more than enough", you have to give some evidence. Speaking of behavior, when i was in Turkey, a lot of things I saw were very strange to me, and looked definitely Oriental to me, about turkish behavior: People smoked hookah in Oriental style cafes, ate on the floor, and the heart of community was in Oriental style bazaars. Many elders wore a middle Eastern round cap. Many women wore hijabs And speaking of food, the two main ingredients of Greek food (pork and pasta) were completely absent from Turkish cuisine, Meanwhile People drunk tea AF (like arabs do) while Greeks never drink tea, instead of that they prefer coffee. People do not Even drink wine, the national and most consumed alcohol in Greece, and a century ago didnt drink any kind of alcohol at all. In Turkish discussions and humor, i cant recall sexuality being acceptable, when sexuality is the main topic in Greek small talks and gossip. I could go on forever. Even the fact that people there prefer cats over dogs (the opposite from what you see in Greece) was strange to me. Gender gap was overwhelmingly bigger than in Greece All these are things that i saw in Western and Southern Turkey, as I have Never been to other parts of the country Are Turks friendly, hospitable and warm? Yes. Is that enough to say that "two populations are similar"? I think no, there is much further than that. So, since you have a fully functioning brain, you can give some substantial evidence to support your claims, and ignore what my personal "target" is
It is a pleasure to hear these comments from our neighbours. We have similar feelings with different. We want to live in peace and happy with our neighbours. 🇬🇷❤️🇹🇷
@@occihum9115 hey we can’t change it that much fast because in turkey %38 percent of population are European but others more than us, Erdogan and all those close minded idiots in turkey occupied democratic rules and trying to make country like a shit.. so sorry but stop yelling and try to argue all the Turkish people! Because turkey is a country but it’s not meaning we are all coming from same life style and ethnicity.
@@yunusemresecgul5969 or really and why according to UN there is an occupation in the north part? I guess you are one of those that use the same UN resolution when it comes to Palestine.
As a Turkish person, I feel nothing but sympathy for our Greek neighbors! I went to Greece a few years ago, and the people there were so kind and warm. I didn’t receive any negativity towards myself, and the trip was so beautiful! Love from Turkey to Greece ❤️
Ben de. Türkiye'deyken insanlar (güvenlik görevlisiden herkese kadar) çok yardımcı olmaya çalıştılar. Metro ücretini ödememe yardım ettiler. Bir kadın bize yardım etmek için 20 dakika harcadı. Bunu asla unutmam. Kocam da asla unutmayacak. Çok etkilendi
As a turkish student who was in Lithuania for studies, I had amazing Greek friends and they were so friendly and caring and we all realized how similar we actually are and how civilians are okay with each other while political propagandas create a non existent chaos among nations like come on its 2021... I wish there was more communication between two nations so that we would realize how things can get so much more peaceful
If in spite of contacting Greek students you were unable to see how different (how much more oriental) you were from them, how do you expect a "better commmunication" with them?

I have been to Athens before, I have many Greek friends and they came to Istanbul. I love the Greek people and Greece very much. These political conflicts should not make us enemies. 🇹🇷🇬🇷❤
You are correct my friend. Malicious politicians, play dangerous games. We Shouldn't allow them to divide and concur! We look the same, we listen and dance to the same music, we have a similar mentality, we share history, and many other things. Only religion is different but that's understandable and respected. Greetings from Athens ❤❤❤
I was in rodos a few summers ago and I was always thinking to make the trip to Antalya but the guests of our hotel were talking me off from the visit! Perhaps next time I will visit Antalya

I am of Greek descent but have grown up in Australia, I have been to both countries several times. I have had more issues with my fellow Greeks in Greece than I have had with the Turkish people. Travelling alone with a severely disabled son and young daughter I asked assistance to board a flight of a young Greek man and he declined I was assisted by a German gentleman……I was totally disgusted with the Greek guys inappropriate reply. Then a week later I was in Turkey with my children and my parents, waiting for the hotel lift in the lobby, two men started looking at my kids grabbed the wheelchair and carried my son up 4 floors to our room so that we were not inconvenienced……..doesn’t say much about my own race, but speaks volumes about the Turks. I love Turkey and will keep going back. What politicians decide doesn’t have anything to do with the actual people.
I can point 5 dishonest Turks or Greeks easily among thousands of nice one. Both nations are well known for their love of land, love of religion, stubbornness, ridiculous claims on everything, past glory that is a far cry today, similar geography, similar games played upon them by much bigger countries that caused suffering and death, lazyness, openness to foreigners, hospitability to be liked by others, emotional and illogical thinking and behaviors. Both nations feel much similar, thus them hating each other publicaly, feeling sad about each other secretly, letting their votes and sons kill each other, letting elders to mourn for why all these man made disasters happening after. This is exactly why a Greek and Turk can befriend each other when they are far away from home, in an alien environment about much different locals whether it be Western (Greeks claim to be Western yet they are not, they are East Mediterrenean) or Far East Asia (Turks claim to be Asian yet they are not, they are also East Mediterranean after 1000 years of existance in Anatolia). Thus a Turk and a Greek can easily befriend an Italian and Spanish, than a Bulgar, an Armenian, a Syrian, a Lebanese, an Albanian, a Bosnian, a Serb next. After that they can befriend Iraqis, Egytians, Hungarians, Moldovians, Austrians, French, Tunisians, Libyans, Moroccans. After it is is finally Germans, British, Nordic nations and so on. So in a way a Greek is nearly a Turk. A British equally foreign to a Greek and a Turk. Religion is the main cause of hate, difference and social barrier between the two nations. Since most young generation people from both countries are secular (non practicing believers, theists, nontheists, atheists), only thing differing between them is the language, even looks are not so different. Especially if you compare it with north Europeans etc. Alas I don't think average Greek or Turk differs so much in hospitability, friendlyness etc.
as a Turk i want to say you thank you for your opinions.Unfortunately, people who have never met a turk may have some prejudices against turks. I wish you and your family a beautiful life
Θα ήταν καλό αν λέγαμε και εμείς τι ίδιο. Ο ήχος της τουρκικής γλώσσας δεν μου αρέσει καθολου ο ήχος της αραβικής γλώσσας επίσης .μου αρέσει πολύ ο ήχος της ιταλικής κ γαλλικής

Greece has the best bands especially stoner rock, desert rock or psychedelic rock. Perfect examples of this kind of music is made in Greece. Nightstalker, Kalamata, 1000mods, Naxatras, Tuber, Deaf Radio, Planet of Zeus, puta volcano, Lord 13, Human Astroid, Chronic Herbal Influence, Craang, Under-V-Covers etc. But there are great bands that make many different genres of music for example Villagers of Ioannina City. A folk rock band. I definitely recommend. Greetings from Turkey
Your comment caught my eye as it is not relevant... And I checked all those bands one by one, one random song each... You gave me happiness tonight, discovering beautiful music up to Incredible sounds and style, I got goosebumps with Puta volcano Black Box.... and I thank you, really. Greetings back from Athens, I never searched for this kind of music till now.
I'm a turkish man and I love everything about greece. The beautiful country which I've visited a few times, the food, the music, the people.. just everything.
I am a greek woman and I love Türkiye and Turkish language. I try to learn your language. I have been to Istanbul 5 times. Now I am done with Istanbul. I want to go to Antalya Bodrum and İzmir. But my big dream... I wish my god allows me one day to visit Karadeniz. In video Turkish people think we are rich. We are not. I will try for many years, maybe my whole life. But one day I hope, I will go to Karadeniz. I think this is the best area the best climate in this neighborhood.
I am Turkish and my wife is Greek and I can agree that the culture is really similar and we didn’t have any cultural difficulties. At first my parents and her parents weren’t so fond of our marriage, but after some time they bonded with each other.
Hi. I am curious if either or both of you are religious. I would like to know if the different religions presented special challenges in your family. I am asking because I get the impression that throughout human history religion has played an enormous role in both splitting people apart and bringing people together.
@@susie5254 people don't care anymore about religions. Personally i believe, that the important thing is the heart, not the reigion. I don't care if a person who talks to me is Christian or not, white or other colour, Greek or Turkish or other country. I only care about heart, if a person is good, that's good enough for me. I wiil go in Turkey to meet Turkish people and i will doing with pleasure.
imperialist countries are making us fight each other and stealing the riches of the two countries. We should stop fighting with each other and work together for the development of our two countries. love from Turkey :)
@ Ege Ilmen You forget that one of the imperialist countries since 1453 has been Turkey! Firstly as an Ottoman Empire (In History, empires have ALWAYS been imperialist) and then as Turkey with Ataturk! The events of 1955 in Constantinople, who are still fresh in the memory of many Rumlar, was due to some provocation that was created by the British Intelligence Service, to irritate the Turks against the Rumlar. Likewise, the real instigators of the massacres of the Greeks of Minor Asia in 1922 were the Germans! In both cases, two foreign countries used the Turks to accomplish their goals for their own interest! The purpose was to use Turkey as a satellite country in the East against the Soviet Union. As for the Germans, they have always supported Turkey and the Turks. They were always hateful towards Greece and her people. Germans and Turks share the same origin. They are two people that originate from the Mongolian steppes. Their ancestors were excellent horse riders and blood-thirsty warriors. Greeks and Turks never shared the same civilization. They have never been "the same" people. Of course been two different people does not mean that we should not try to be good neighbours. Let there be no strife between us, then.
@@aigleroyal3941 Both country did wrong things in the past. My grand grand mother came to Turkey from Crete, many Turks and Greek live together so many years. There was no sharp edge between two nations before the Greek occupation in 1920, especially in Minor Asia. I respect the cultural differences but insist on old conflicts will not be good both countries.
Bro the best and truest comment here... Because in 1921 steal the gold from Greeks in euxino pondo but the gold was handover to the Germans. If the turkey really wanted to do that they had keep the gold for them!
@@aigleroyal3941 I never heard such a nonsense:)) Turks and German are the same origin?! What kind of books you’re reading?! Go and study real history not the fake one! Don’t say such a nonsense. People will laugh.
I lived in Belgium for a while and all of my best friends were from Greece and Bulgaria. They are excellent people. We share so many things in common but politics focus on little differences rather vast similarities. Lots of love from Turkiye!
I had turkish colleagues in my previous job. From the very first we met they were warm polite and happy to me. We always hugged each other when we met in the company's headquarters in Italy. I visited Istanbul in 2018. They were very friendly and nice as always. Both videos were shot in capital cities. I think answers will be much different if you ask people far from city center where are more narrowminded.
not really, I live in Greece close to the Turkish border (very far from Athens of course), we have great relations with Turks who visit us - we easily become friends and understand each other. We of course visit Turkey as well and have positive feelings.
One day, I will visit Greece as a tourist. I was a bit sceptical about it before this video. Now I feel that we have mutual good feelings and thoughts about each other. In our history lessons we didn't hear good things but time passed and now no one is responsible about it. We deserve to live together in peace. Loves from Istanbul :)
@@angrybirdo yes, because Greece doesnt have Turks. In Athens, where I live for 32 years, i have seen all kinds of people, from every corner of the world. Except Turks
I've been to Athens twice. I met incredibly good people. I drank ouzo and delicious food that is absolutely impossible to forget. Greetings from Turkey.
Hi, I am from Turkey. I just want to say something. History is the past. Let's start a new history page with Love and brotherhood ❤️. If greece and turkey are together nobody will/can take it apart. You guys are welcome at my place. 🇹🇷❤️🇬🇷
Turks never coonsider this " brotherhood" on equal terms though. In their consciousness the " big" country should lead and the " small " country should be subservient. The " büyük" Tyrkey should be the leader and the " kuçuk" Greece should be the subservient in this kind of relationship. So for as Greeks we know what that means, for the based ones at least.
@@intikam23ist Imagine if our two countries were as strong allies as the Scandinavian ones. Our resources military/naval wise and primary production wise would be unmatched , combined with an extra economical boost from exchanged tourism and student exchange to elevate evermore our education we are gradually going towards being a force to be reckoned with.Not sure if some countries, I won't name ,would be glad about that though
On those difficult days, I watched the video and I felt hope. We people should not let politicians make both people enemies. Because of the media, we are wrongly informed about each other and manipulated. Before believing what we see in the media let's just try to talk and know a Turkish/Greek person.

My best friend from graduate school is Turkish and lives in Istanbul. He is like a brother to me. The thought that anything bad could happen to him or his family is unbearable. The thought that it could happen as a result of anything Greece did is...let's just say I would die inside if that ever happened. Once our priority becomes to protect those we love on the other side of the Aegean, everything else can be worked out.
My Greek grandparents used to live in Istanbul (Constantinople) and when were expelled they were crying along with their neighbors, they were like kardash / brothers. It's all a political game. The religion and beliefs are different but we are so similar in the family values, music, food. In USA we are all friends. Greetings from America
So similar in Family values.. yes, like Greeks having 5 children per family, community families with all extend family into one house etc.. which parallel universe do you live in, my friend? I can understand how istanbul and other anatolian Greeks have similar food and music to Turks and rest of oriental people, but what have mainland Greeks to do with oriental people from all these aspects?

As a Greek, i had visited Turkey back in 2009, and since then i returned 3 times (4 in total, 3 in Western shores and 1 in cappadokia). Turks were very hospitable and friendly people Now, as for how close the two peoples are, i would say that they have things in common, but differences are a lot more than similarities: Mentality: both are "warm", but Turks are a lot more emotional, Greeks are more "comfortable", but Turks more "relaxed". Turkish mentality is "not suspicious at all", Greeks are a lot more suspicious. The Greek stereotype of Turkish mentality is that they are "agathoi" (good people but not "suspicious"/"cunning") Habits: here are many differences: Turks vastly drink tea, Greeks vastly drink coffee (mainly a Greek coffee called frappe, and foreign like espresso). Turks almost never (in the past never) drink wine, Greeks mainly drink wine, Turks rather drink raki, a drink which resembles Balkan rakija and levantine arak. They also drink a lot of ayran. Greeks have no idea what this thing is. Some Turks eat on the floor. The only case Greeks Would eat on the ground would be on a pick nick in the countryside. Greeks prefer dogs, Turks cats. Greeks keep shoes on when visiting a foreign house, Turks remove their shoes in such occasions Music: part of music is identical, part of music is nothing alike. The music of anatolian Greeks is identical to Turkish. Both are a blend of Byzantine, Central asian and Arabic music. Greeks of mainland have a vastly different music, intermediate to Balkan and italian. Greeks of Ionian islands have purely Italian. Cuisine: Turks dont seem to love pork, and have a love for spicy food. Greeks consume pork more than any kind of meat, and rarely like spicy food. Greeks also have a very old pasta tradition, nearly equal to Italian. Turkey has no more pasta than manti ans eriste, both resembling central asian instead of south European pasta. Architecture: Turkish architecture is the ottoman vernacular house. Greece has this type only in Northern mainland regions. Southern Greece and Greek islands architecture is similar to Southern European Language: Greek language is a centum (Western) indoeuropean language with "Spanish" sounds, Turkish is an altaic language As a whole, Greeks are a European nation with limited Oriental influences (and we are not the only, at least all Iberians, Maltese, South Italians, and to a higher extend south Balkaners are European nations with oriental influences). Turks are a blend of central asian, caucasian and persian civilization, with some levantine influence
And how did you find it that in Capadokia the cave-churches build from Christian greeks part of greek heritage, have Turkish names and there is not any reference to Greece/greek/hellenic/byzantine?

You dont care about history because you must Because we were slaves for 400 years Can you imagine how greeks suffering from all this tortures?turks were selling us as slaves at bazars They were raping our women they were Stealing out kids and made them genissaries we were not allowed to build big houses because it would be an insult to you We had 80% mores taxes And much more 50% of greeks were living at the mountains Only at 1870-1900 things became better and we were ''friends'' but that was it I dont have problem with Turks today but don't delete the history.never
As a turkish girl i feel amazed by those reactions ! Especially the boy and the girl at 2:39 and i couldn't agree more. I have noticed that since my childhood they keep telling us that greeks are bad but it's just because of political leaning. Politics made our people believe in a so called ennemy relationship stuff.but we all know that we have common cultures with greeks and i am happy to see youngers like me getting along🇬🇷🇹🇷

The average person just wants to be left in peace to live their life. They want a comfortable home, food to eat and to be happy. Once you start bringing politics and power into the mix, that’s when the problems start. It’s why I’m not surprised the majority of the people in both videos were mainly positive towards one another. One thing that one of the Turkish men said was very important. The wars of our grandfathers. Let’s leave them as the wars of or grandfathers and look towards the future. Very cool idea, glad you guys collaborated and really enjoyed the videos.
The same guy said also "if Greeks are not peaceful we will act accordingly.." which is translated as : if Greeks continue "conquering" the Greek islands we should "rightfully" own, we will start a war". Don't be so naive....

As a Turk with few Greek friends I want to say thank u , because u show how the Greek citizens thinks about us . the problems Greece and turkey have are no problems between the citizens of the two countries, it’s a political issue we have here which is pushed by the European Union and the USA.

Hello everyone. I am just a guy who looks like european but originally Turkish who was born and raised in beatiful İstanbul (aka Constantinople) I have never watched a video about Greeks except this one.And I've suddenly realized that how much we look like each other... with our way of speaking, with our appereances and with our rich & engaged history...

There is only one rule of living Decisively together : to have trust in each other. If a sense of trust is not formed in a real sense, there will be no respect, no peace. A sense of trust is hard-won in time. Turks are friends to their friends and enemies to their enemies.They do not hide it. . That is why they also do not forget the very painful lessons they have learned from insidious enemies and betrayals who seem friendly. Betrayal destroys a lot of hard-earned trust. Every flaw can be forgiven, but the betrayal of the enemy who seems friendly can never be forgiven... And you can't respect people you don't trust.

I was visiting Istanbul a few years ago and I was at a bus-stop wondering what bus would get me to the Orthodox Patriarchate. A Turk saw me as a confused tourist. He literally took me on to the right bus all the way to my stop and got another bus back to where he was waiting for his bus. I have never had such a kind act offered to me in my life. There's nothing wrong with Turkish people. But let's not talk about politicians!🙂
I am Turkish but I am living in Norway. I did meet many nationalities here including Greeks, and I can definitely tell you that Greeks are one of my favorite people! I love to talk about our similarities and differences with ‘‘em and they are one of the sweetest people on earth! Politics and history aside, we are neighbors and we should unite 💕💕
I'm from the Western Turkey. I heard a lot of stories about their Greek neighbors from my granny and whenever I go back to my hometown, there are some carvings and sctriptures in some of the houses they had to leave. I feel like it's another part of my hometown I have never had the chance to see. Like a homesick I have to fulfill. Most sincere hearthful of loves from the other side.
If you are from a city like izmir, your grandma should have told you that her Greek neighbors were not "equal" to Turks. Greeks controled the entire economy of the city, their culture and social structure was completely European, and whenever they got married a non-Greek, this non-Greek was a French or Italian or Armenian, never middle Eastern people like Turks, Arabs etc of the city, who also usually made up their emploees
@Ğaaa let me explain a few things: 1) you confuse Greeks of Izmir with "anatolian Greeks". Anatolian Greeks CERTAINLY were heavilly middle eastern, like armenians or Christian lebanese. But Izmir Greeks, as well as Greeks from a couple of other cities (ayvalik, alacate etc) were NOT anatolian Greeks. They were descendants of Greeks who emigrated from mainland and nearby islands between 16th and early 20th centuries. The middle eastern things that felt alien to mainland Greeks, mainly came from native anatolian Greek populations, like cappadokians etc. I am very aware of what you are talking about, since, in spite of being fully Mainlander myself, i have met a lot of anatolians when i studied at Thessaloniki (a city where nearly 8/10 of the population is partially or fully anatolian) and I know what they are like. 2) Turks certainly dominated military and administration of the city, it makes sense, as they were the ottomans, and izmir was in the ottoman empire. But its well documented that nearly all of business of Izmir was ruled by Greeks and Armenians. Thus, anyone else were workers and employees of them, Turks and included 3) like Modern Greek society, the Greek community of Izmir did not really differ from other western European societies, and by the days of Izmir destruction, almost all French and Italians had nearly been assimilated by Greeks. Almost all Greeks from Izmir that i know, have an Italian or French ancestor. The rest of Izmir's society, Armenians included, certainly was nothing lile European societies, i was referring to Greeks exclusively. The Greek community was vastly different from Turkish, in terms of status, properties and everything else, and it makes sense, as not only they came from a society west of Turkey, but also were more rich, with only Turks being comparable being those of the administration, as you previously mentioned Worth mentioned that even non-Greek Christian populations of anatolia, like karamanlides, saw European influence before muslim Turks who could live in next-door houses. Once i recall a pic from karaman, with a Christian karamanlide, who looked nothing like a Greek (as he wasnt) being dressed in western fashion, Meanwhile his turkish neighbors wore buggy pants. That says a lot how religion alone affects societies even in the heart of anatolia, let alone when there were a lot more things to differentiate communities from each other, like in Izmir
@Ğaaa there are a few things you have to understand about Greeks: 1) Orthodoxy and Church in general has never been a limit for Greeks, Even if it was for Russians. Religion on the contrary yes, has been a limit (i mean Christianity vs islam). Lol i have no idea where you got the idea that "Orthodoxy is closer to islam than to the rest of Christinity (????) But reality is that Islam is not closer to Orthodox Church than it is to the rest of Christian Churches, let alone Orthodox Christianity being closer to islam than to.. the rest of Christianity. In fact Even in medieval Greece, there was an entire class of mixed Greeks/French or Venetians, sometimes Dutch, who were called "gasmuloi". Let alone in modern years For at least 200 years there have been more Roman Catholic foreigners living in Greece, usually married to natives, than Orthodox foreigners. Greeks in Izmir didnt have strong bounds/limits with other Europeans of the city, and the fact that a great part of them had italians and French in their family tree was a good evidence of that. I know that they lived in seperated communities (defined by nationality, Nothing to do with religion) but they easily interacted and intermarried with other Europeans Greeks were never seen as "more like Russians" they have always been seen as western, in spite pf being Orthodox, mainly because Greece has associated itself more with Ancient Greece than Byzantine empire. Greek Orthodox Church has more Roman Catholic influences than any other Orthodox Church, and Roman Catholic Greeks have never faced a single problem from their Orthodox countrymen (unlike, say, catholic yugoslavs) The number of French and Italians in Izmir dramatically decreased after 1923. There were even pure italians coming here with the exchange, let alone Italian-Greek hybrids Also, when i mentioned karamanlides being dressed in Western style, i didnt mean it as an example of being more developed than their muslim neighbors (i have no idea if they actually were), my point in this part was how religion alone, even in a Christian population in the middle of Asia like karamanlides, could alone make a population more Western and create ties with Europe than its muslim counterparts. If western=developed.. that is at least not what I said As for Greeks of Izmir, they ruled the biggest part of the industry (not only small or medium companies), and had a higher education than most of other populations in the city. That alone says enough on who was more rich. Yes, Maybe Turkish buraeocrats were rich as well, but on average, Greeks were richer than most of Turks and other ethnicities in Izmir, as they ruled most of its free market market part. "In fact had Greeks of izmir been more developed thye Would have won against us" quite the opposite, these people didnt even bother join the army, as they were too "smooth" because of their lifestyle. The one who usually wins is the "sharp", who comes from working class To make it clear, speaking of developement, i repeat that i am not talking about native anatolian Greeks, but Greeks of Izmir and a couple of other communities recently founded by Mainlanders
@Melisa güleroglu [🇹🇷] official sources say that 1.3 million Greeks came from Turkey in 1923, 900 thousands from anatolia and 400 thousands from Eastern Thrace (Which is not in anatolia), Meanwhile the number of Natives in Greece was 5,5 millions. Lol where did you read that "Natives was 3-4 million" or that "anatolians who came to Greece were 2 millions"? That is rediculous at least. Also, where did you read that anatolian Greeks had a higher birth rate than European Greeks? If anything, a LOT of anatolian Greeks emigrated to Usa and Germany a few decades after coming to Greece (others directly) and a LOT of them died out of hunger during the first days of their arrival, as well as during the world war 2. Hardly 20% of Greeks have partially and fully anatolian ancestry. That is faaaaar from "most". Unless of course yoy Have sources proving the opposite
@Melisa güleroglu [🇹🇷] i think you confuse all Greeks, with Pontic/trabzon Greeks, who indeed are caucasian. Greek Mainlanders are considered southern European, like Italians and Spaniards
I have visited 20 countries on Europe but not Greek yet. I hope I can visit Greek after pandemic and make good friendships there. We are all humanbeings.
I grew up in Turkey as a son of a high-ranking soldier. Naturally, I saw myself as a Turkish nationalist. But this nationalism has never made me see me as superior or dominant over other nations. I have always loved the Greeks and other neighbors. Your history, mythology, natural beauties and people are very beautiful ama this amazes me ^^. When I was young, asked my parents about the Greeks, I always heard very positive things. Long story short, two beautiful countries in a common geography. The truth is I've never had a Greek friend but I'm sure I would be very pleased. I hope I can visit Greece one day. γεια σας Έλληνες φίλοι μου

Sorry to burst your bubble but we are not brothers. Governors are elected by people so people are partly responsible for what governors decide to do. We don't have the same vocabulary.

As a Turkish person who grew up in Greek community in Melbourne Australia (noting it has the highest population of Greek people outside of Athens) unfortunately there is a lot of hate from Greek people toward Turks. Whenever there was political tensions, we would avoid going to our regular shopping place because if anyone heard us speak Turkish and recognise it, they would show it with their expressions and make comments in Greek to the other people. Greek people I thought were good friends apparently hated Turks and revealed it later on which ruined our friendship of course - I was always nice to them. I'm in my mid-30s now and I feel a bit of a shift with the younger generation though but no longer live amongst the Greek community. I would have liked to report better interactions but unfortunately that wasn't the case. So now I won't form relationships with Greek people - I've been burned. My grandparents lived in Crete and Greece and our culture in western Turkey is very similar to that of Greeks - maybe even more than the other parts ofTurkey. I also want to add that not once have any Turkish people I've met made racist comments toward Greeks - they view them as siblings - kardeş which the comments section here easily demonstrates.
There are both good and bad people, nationalists and democratic people in both countries. We greeks have undergone much pain from your nation but the majority of the people have left it today in the past and don't feel the turkish people as enemies. Only the political emperialist scene is making the problem. I only pray for peace and friendship 🙏🏿
as a greek person im very sad to hear that. theres always bad people. whether its bad turks or bad greeks. but most of us are good, and i hope you give us another shot!
I heard from a friend of mine (who is from Athens and lived in Melbourne for several years) that the mentality of the Greek community there is very narrowminded and strange, even towards other Greeks (who later immigrated in Australia), so don't get upset with all Greek people, just avoid those from Melbourne!
Not only greeks, but also people living far from their country can become a little more conservative and fanatical nationalists. In order to feel safe in a foreign country, they prefer those who are like them,who share the same culture. At the root of hostile attitudes is always a sense of insecurity.
what about Turkish imperialism?what about mavi vatan?why the Turks constantly threat my country Greece,violate our territorial rights and demand half of our Aegean islands and north eastern Greece for Turkey?IT looks like there is a VERY serious problem with Turkish imperialism.i read every day at the news about new turkish weapons and advanced military technology.Turkiye,why do you need all these weapons,really?
When I was living in the Netherlands if I meet with people who are friendly,lovely and smile a lot they were %80 Greek. So ❤ We had a lot to talk about everything , about our cultures, I felt like at home.

Μακάρι να ήταν τα πράγματα τόσο απλά. Αλλά δεν είναι. Είναι δύσκολή η συνύπαρξη με τους γείτονες. Δεν είναι όλα τα προβλήματα μεταξύ μας παρελθόν, ώστε να λέμε ότι τώρα είναι όλα ρόδινα. Για πείτε το αυτό στους κατοίκους των νησιών απέναντι από την Τουρκία με τα τουρκικά αλιευτικά να πλησιάζουν μία ανάσα στα ακριτικά νησιά μας - τωρινή κατάσταση αυτή, όχι παρελθόν. Για πείτε το αυτό στους Κυπρίους που έψαχναν πού είναι τα παιδιά τους και πλέον ζουν τα αδέρφια και ακόμα ψάχνουν πού είναι, για παράδειγμα, ένας Κύπριος ψάχνει τον αδερφό του, αν είναι ζωντανός ή μήπως βρει την σορό του για να κάνει μια ταφή αξιοπρεπή. Κύπριοι μού είπαν ότι υπήρχαν γυναίκες αρραβωνιασμένες που δεν παντρεύτηκαν ποτέ γιατι ο αρραβωνιαστικός τους ήταν αγνοούμενος και δεν ήταν σίγουρες αν ζει ή σκοτώθηκε κατά την εισβολή. Ο αγνοούμενος μπορεί να είναι και χειρότερο από τον νεκρό, γιατί δεν ξέρεις αν θα ελπίζεις, αν μπορείς να έχεις "closure", να βάλεις έναν επίλογο σε μια δύσκολη στιγμή και να προχωρήσεις στην ζωή σου. Μιλάμε για το 1974, δεν είναι αρχαία ιστορία. Και τώρα, πόσα ξοδεύει το ελληνικό κράτος στην άμυνα, γιατί δεν μπορείς να πεις στον γείτονα "περάστε, παρακαλώ" αν θελήσει να εισβάλει - λέτε ότι φταίνε μόνο οι κυβερνήσεις, αλλά η εκάστοτε ελληνική κυβέρνηση δεν προκαλεί με ρητορικές απόκτησης εδαφών, όπως γινεται από την άλλη πλευρά, άρα δεν είναι "οι κυβερνήσεις" στον πληθυντικό, είναι η μία πλευρά ξεκάθαρα. Είναι πολλά για να γράψει κανείς σε ένα σχόλιο. Ούτε καν αναφέρομαι σε ιστορία και σε γενοκτονίες (Αρμένιοι, Πόντιοι). Μιλήστε με Κούρδους (έχω γνωρίσει από κοντά) να δείτε τί θα σας πουν - για τωρινές καταστάσεις, για το πώς απαγορεύτηκε να μιλάνε την γλώσσα τους στην Τουρκία. Όσο για ομοιότητες μεταξύ Ελλήνων και Τούρκων, υπάρχουν κυρίως στα φαγητά, όχι σε άλλους τομείς. Γλωσσολογικά, η τουρκική ανήκει σε άλλη οικογένεια γλωσσών, δεν μοιάζουν οι γλώσσες. Θρησκευτικά είναι γνωστό ότι διαφέρουν. Πολιστιμικά επίσης υπάρχουν διαφορές. Η θέση της γυναίκας στην Τουρκία είναι διαφορετική. Έχουν ζητήματα σοβαρά στο θέμα ανθρωπίνων δικαιωμάτων. Άρα, θα ήθελα να πω ότι δεν μπορούμε να τα απλοποιούμε όλα, να λέμε ότι μοιάζουμε, ότι είναι όλα καλά, ότι είμαστε φίλοι και δεν υπάρχει κανένα πρόβλημα. Ναι, σε προσωπικό επίπεδο, και εγώ έχω συναντήσει Τούρκους που άλλοι μπορεί να ειναι ευγενικοί ή άλλοι όχι. Αλλά δεν μπορούμε να αγνοήσουμε γεγονότα σημαντικά. Το λέω μετά λύπης. Γιατί έχω ζήσει στο εξωτερικό, έχω φίλους από άλλες χώρες και το βρίσκω συναρπαστικό αυτό. Αλλά είναι γεγονός ότι η συγκεκριμένη χώρα παραμένει ένας δύσκολος γείτονας.
Είναι ένα πολύ συναισθηματικό και μονόπλευρο προκατειλημμένο σχόλιο. το 1974, οι Τούρκοι δεν πήγαν στην Κύπρο για να συλλέξουν μαργαρίτες. Οι Τούρκοι επενέβησαν στρατιωτικά στην Κύπρο με το δικαίωμα που απορρέει από διεθνείς συμφωνίες. Όπως είναι σήμερα, δεν σέβεστε τις διεθνείς συμφωνίες και το δίκαιο. Νομίζεις ότι το ψέμα και η ανεντιμότητα είναι πονηρά.. Γιατί δεν αναφέρεις ποτέ τις σφαγές που διέπραξαν οι φασίστες Γρίβας και Σαμψών; Ακόμη και ο Πρόεδρος Μακάριος έπρεπε να εγκαταλείψει το νησί για να αποφύγει να σκοτωθεί από αυτούς τους φασίστες. Θα βλέπαμε να καταστρέφονται οι Τούρκοι και να προσαρτάται η Κύπρος από την Ελλάδα ? Γιατί να μην μιλήσουμε για τις προσπάθειες της Ελλάδας να παραβιάσει τις διεθνείς συμφωνίες στη θάλασσα των νησιών ? Γιατί δεν μου λες για τους αθώους ανθρώπους που πνίγηκαν από τους Έλληνες με τις μπότες τους τρυπημένες ? Δεν ξέρεις για όλα αυτά; Ή εξαπατάτε τον εαυτό σας με ψέματα επειδή η αλήθεια δεν λειτουργεί για σας; Εσείς και οι ομοϊδεάτες σας μπορεί να είστε ηλίθιοι. Αλλά οι Τούρκοι είναι πολύ έξυπνοι για να πιστέψουν τέτοια φτηνά ψέματα. Δεν έχουμε αλυτρωτική διεκδίκηση στο έδαφος της Ελλάδας και δεν έχει συμβεί ποτέ... Αλλά θα προστατεύσουμε τα δικαιώματά μας που απορρέουν από διεθνείς συμφωνίες με κάθε κόστος. Παρά τα εκατοντάδες χρόνια που έχουν περάσει μαζ ίακόμα δεν ξέρεις τους Τούρκους.

Love from 🇬🇷♥️🇹🇷
Italians, Greeks and Turks are great people with great cultures. I feel honored that we Albanians have participated and shared land and culture with all three of them and today we are very close culturally to all three. Hence we have all three religions (among others) and we are proud of that.
There are millions of Albanians in Turkey and they are very nice people. I have many friends of Albanian origin and they are very kind
Grazie per il tuo commento, mi sento onorato a nome dell'Italia e del passato comune che unisce questi tre popoli, compresi i gravi conflitti che hanno avuto tra di loro. Vorrei che più italiani fossero consapevoli di questa storia e cultura condivisa tra questi tre popoli che hai citato, di cui sono grande ammiratore.
Whoever gets in your arm without knowing who you are, just to describe an address, is Mediterranean. The warmth... As an Aegean( a subset of Mediterranean) raised man, it's beyond nationalities I think.🙂 Nowadays trying to establish a new life in Germany, olive oil unites us wherever we are. 💚💙🤍♥️
At the same time, you are culturally close to Serbs and Bulgarians, closer to those 2 than to at least Greeks and Italians.
Only Turks from Western Turkey are culturally close to Greeks and Italians, Turks from Central Anatolia and Eastern Turkey not that much, they are much closer to Iranians, secondly Greeks don’t have a tea culture for example, Greek influence can be seen in our cuisine, ancient Turks didn’t know sea food, we adopted that from the Greeks, there is also a major Persian/Arabic influence on our cuisine which in return we passed to the Greeks. It seems you really don’t know Turkey or Turkish people that well my friend, stop comparing us Turks to Greeks, Albanians or Italians, we are a unique nation in our own right. Our culture is a mix of different past civilizations who once inhabited Asia Minor. Every region in Turkey is different.
It warms my heart to see how so many Greeks and Turks in the comments love and appreciate each other. As a Korean, Greece-Turkey always reminds me of Korea-Japan. Korea and Japan also share a long and often complicated history like Greece-Turkey, but despite that, most Koreans and Japanese don't harbor any negative feelings towards each other and love visiting each other's countries and appreciating their culture (Kpop, Anime).
Even if governments quarrel, I hope that the people can continue appreciating each other regardless of that.
I love both countries and I'm glad to hear that!! I started watching old Japanese films but then Kdrama came to my life and I was hooked. I hold a deep appreciation, respect and admiration for your cultures. Greeks don't want any conflict with Turkish people, we all want to live peacefully. Greetings to lovely Korea ❤❤
안녕하세요~ you are so right. As a Turkish i don’t, we don’t want any bad relationship with any country. And it warms us how they sent help so quickly at the earthquake time🤍 we can not or won’t forget the kidness also huge and big thanks to Korea🫰🏻 you guys supported us. We are so grateful and never forget🙏🏻 We really see koreans as a brother and we are sincere about that. 🇰🇷🤍🇹🇷
Most Japanese people don't care about Korea though. Korea loves seeing Japan as a rival of them, whereas the same isn't true for Japan
It's becouse they are not Turkish originally 😂😂😂
I believe in most cases despite the history, most people just want peace with each other. It's our governments that we don't know their intention. I'm Greek-American and in the US I see the government trying to divide the people using different tactics. Let's not let the government or others divide us. Btw, Greece & Korea also have another similar history in that we both experienced having junta-military dictatorship. Though Korea had it for many more years. After watching Youth of May, I realized many more lives were lost in Korea trying to fight it. I'm also a kdrama fan, much love from Greece.
I'm Greek, I live close to the Turkish border and I've met many many Turks visiting my country. I've never ever seen any hatred by the Turks.
I visited Andrianople (Edirne) many times, everything was very normal, Turks were very friendly to us.
I lived both in Germany, and the USA. Turks are the same over there, very friendly. In those countries, Turks were the first to run and help us in case of need - we did the same.
I grew up as a kid with the idea that Turks are enemies, and since then everywhere I've been they are extremely friendly people especially when they learn you are a Greek.
Now, my son, who is a teenager, has grown without any bad feelings about Turkey - I hope this generation will be the first to be clean from hatred and finally we can all be friends.
Well said!
I am turk! I can say the same for Greeks. Last year in 2021, I had a holiday in Greece and the people were very nice to me! When I told them that I'm from turkey, everybody said the same: we are not enemies! Everybody was nice and friendly to me! Plus as a character we (Greeks and Turks) are very similar population :D greetings to greece and dont care about the politic!!!!
@@kadirulas7881 similar from what freakin aspect my friend? Because the turks that I saw in Turkey, as well as in every single video about Turkey, are too oriental to be similar to us. But i would be greatful to hear of how a middle eastern country is similar to a southern european one
also, did you expect them to tell you that they see you as an enemy, while you came here to leave your beautiful money? Guys, use your brain for a while. People are always friendly to tourists, wherever they come from, as they live from tourism
@@snowman9452 Dude, don't worry I use my brain more than enough! I am a Software Engineer and plus businessman and I am not stupid to see the things which is silly or not!
Anyway, similarity means in this case like behaviour, food etc. I can give you an example: I live in Vienna and there is a lot of greek communities and have got many greek friends they are also very temperament like us and guest friendly! But your target is that you don't want Greeks and Turks to be in the same category but the truth is we are similar, even if you don't want to acceTurkey is very large country and there is a lot of ethnics therefore I would say east part of turkey is oriental where the most of kurds are living. Middle Anatolia is very conservative and little bit oriental but west, north and south parts (coasts) of turkey are not like this!
That is true and you are definitely right. As a tourist everybody would be nice to me! but you can distinguish the behaviours of people! Just go to Scandinavians, Slav Countries or Germany as a tourist then you would see the difference!
@@kadirulas7881 by just saying that we are similar, we are not going to become similar, you know. If you think so, and you "use brain more than enough", you have to give some evidence.
Speaking of behavior, when i was in Turkey, a lot of things I saw were very strange to me, and looked definitely Oriental to me, about turkish behavior: People smoked hookah in Oriental style cafes, ate on the floor, and the heart of community was in Oriental style bazaars. Many elders wore a middle Eastern round cap. Many women wore hijabs
And speaking of food, the two main ingredients of Greek food (pork and pasta) were completely absent from Turkish cuisine, Meanwhile People drunk tea AF (like arabs do) while Greeks never drink tea, instead of that they prefer coffee. People do not Even drink wine, the national and most consumed alcohol in Greece, and a century ago didnt drink any kind of alcohol at all. In Turkish discussions and humor, i cant recall sexuality being acceptable, when sexuality is the main topic in Greek small talks and gossip.
I could go on forever. Even the fact that people there prefer cats over dogs (the opposite from what you see in Greece) was strange to me. Gender gap was overwhelmingly bigger than in Greece
All these are things that i saw in Western and Southern Turkey, as I have Never been to other parts of the country
Are Turks friendly, hospitable and warm? Yes. Is that enough to say that "two populations are similar"? I think no, there is much further than that. So, since you have a fully functioning brain, you can give some substantial evidence to support your claims, and ignore what my personal "target" is
It is a pleasure to hear these comments from our neighbours. We have similar feelings with different. We want to live in peace and happy with our neighbours. 🇬🇷❤️🇹🇷

I am of Greek descent but have grown up in Australia, I have been to both countries several times. I have had more issues with my fellow Greeks in Greece than I have had with the Turkish people. Travelling alone with a severely disabled son and young daughter I asked assistance to board a flight of a young Greek man and he declined I was assisted by a German gentleman……I was totally disgusted with the Greek guys inappropriate reply. Then a week later I was in Turkey with my children and my parents, waiting for the hotel lift in the lobby, two men started looking at my kids grabbed the wheelchair and carried my son up 4 floors to our room so that we were not inconvenienced……..doesn’t say much about my own race, but speaks volumes about the Turks. I love Turkey and will keep going back.
What politicians decide doesn’t have anything to do with the actual people.
I can point 5 dishonest Turks or Greeks easily among thousands of nice one. Both nations are well known for their love of land, love of religion, stubbornness, ridiculous claims on everything, past glory that is a far cry today, similar geography, similar games played upon them by much bigger countries that caused suffering and death, lazyness, openness to foreigners, hospitability to be liked by others, emotional and illogical thinking and behaviors. Both nations feel much similar, thus them hating each other publicaly, feeling sad about each other secretly, letting their votes and sons kill each other, letting elders to mourn for why all these man made disasters happening after. This is exactly why a Greek and Turk can befriend each other when they are far away from home, in an alien environment about much different locals whether it be Western (Greeks claim to be Western yet they are not, they are East Mediterrenean) or Far East Asia (Turks claim to be Asian yet they are not, they are also East Mediterranean after 1000 years of existance in Anatolia). Thus a Turk and a Greek can easily befriend an Italian and Spanish, than a Bulgar, an Armenian, a Syrian, a Lebanese, an Albanian, a Bosnian, a Serb next. After that they can befriend Iraqis, Egytians, Hungarians, Moldovians, Austrians, French, Tunisians, Libyans, Moroccans. After it is is finally Germans, British, Nordic nations and so on. So in a way a Greek is nearly a Turk. A British equally foreign to a Greek and a Turk. Religion is the main cause of hate, difference and social barrier between the two nations. Since most young generation people from both countries are secular (non practicing believers, theists, nontheists, atheists), only thing differing between them is the language, even looks are not so different. Especially if you compare it with north Europeans etc.
Alas I don't think average Greek or Turk differs so much in hospitability, friendlyness etc.
as a Turk i want to say you thank you for your opinions.Unfortunately, people who have never met a turk may have some prejudices against turks. I wish you and your family a beautiful life

Greece has the best bands especially stoner rock, desert rock or psychedelic rock. Perfect examples of this kind of music is made in Greece. Nightstalker, Kalamata, 1000mods, Naxatras, Tuber, Deaf Radio, Planet of Zeus, puta volcano, Lord 13, Human Astroid, Chronic Herbal Influence, Craang, Under-V-Covers etc. But there are great bands that make many different genres of music for example Villagers of Ioannina City.

imperialist countries are making us fight each other and stealing the riches of the two countries. We should stop fighting with each other and work together for the development of our two countries. love from Turkey :)
@ Ege Ilmen You forget that one of the imperialist countries since 1453 has been Turkey! Firstly as an Ottoman Empire (In History, empires have ALWAYS been imperialist) and then as Turkey with Ataturk! The events of 1955 in Constantinople, who are still fresh in the memory of many Rumlar, was due to some provocation that was created by the British Intelligence Service, to irritate the Turks against the Rumlar. Likewise, the real instigators of the massacres of the Greeks of Minor Asia in 1922 were the Germans! In both cases, two foreign countries used the Turks to accomplish their goals for their own interest! The purpose was to use Turkey as a satellite country in the East against the Soviet Union. As for the Germans, they have always supported Turkey and the Turks. They were always hateful towards Greece and her people. Germans and Turks share the same origin. They are two people that originate from the Mongolian steppes. Their ancestors were excellent horse riders and blood-thirsty warriors. Greeks and Turks never shared the same civilization. They have never been "the same" people. Of course been two different people does not mean that we should not try to be good neighbours. Let there be no strife between us, then.
@@aigleroyal3941 Both country did wrong things in the past. My grand grand mother came to Turkey from Crete, many Turks and Greek live together so many years.

I visited Istanbul in 2018. They were very friendly and nice as always. Both videos were shot in capital cities. I think answers will be much different if you ask people far from city center where are more narrowminded.
not really, I live in Greece close to the Turkish border (very far from Athens of course), we have great relations with Turks who visit us - we easily become friends and understand each other. We of course visit Turkey as well and have positive feelings.
As a Turk, i had a lot of Greek friends. I like them, they're good people.
One day, I will visit Greece as a tourist. I was a bit sceptical about it before this video. Now I feel that we have mutual good feelings and thoughts about each other. In our history lessons we didn't hear good things but time passed and now no one is responsible about it. We deserve to live together in peace. Loves from Istanbul :)
Come to Australia, Turks and Greeks live together in peace.
@@warneverchanges4105 Turks and Greeks live in peace in Greece too.

Thank you! Marilena
Turks never coonsider this " brotherhood" on equal terms though.
In their consciousness the " big" country should lead and the " small " country should be subservient.
The " büyük" Tyrkey should be the leader and the " kuçuk" Greece should be the subservient in this kind of relationship.
So for as Greeks we know what that means, for the based ones at least.

My best friend from graduate school is Turkish and lives in Istanbul. He is like a brother to me. The thought that anything bad could happen to him or his family is unbearable. The thought that it could happen as a result of anything Greece did is...let's just say I would die inside if that ever happened. Once our priority becomes to protect those we love on the other side of the Aegean, everything else can be worked out.
I have worked one person from Greece and one person from Cyrpus. They were amazing , i don't like politics. I love them :)
My Greek grandparents used to live in Istanbul (Constantinople) and when were expelled they were crying along with their neighbors, they were like kardash / brothers. It's all a political game. The religion and beliefs are different but we are so similar in the family values, music, food. In USA we are all friends. Greetings from America
So similar in Family values.. yes, like Greeks having 5 children per family, community families with all extend family into one house etc.. which parallel universe do you live in, my friend?
I can understand how istanbul and other anatolian Greeks have similar food and music to Turks and rest of oriental people, but what have mainland Greeks to do with oriental people from all these aspects?

As a Greek, i had visited Turkey back in 2009, and since then i returned 3 times (4 in total, 3 in Western shores and 1 in cappadokia). Turks were very hospitable and friendly people
Now, as for how close the two peoples are, i would say that they have things in common, but differences are a lot more than similarities:
Mentality: both are "warm", but Turks are a lot more emotional, Greeks are more "comfortable", but Turks more "relaxed". Turkish mentality is "not suspicious at all", Greeks are a lot more suspicious. The Greek stereotype of Turkish mentality is that they are "agathoi" (good people but not "suspicious"/"cunning")
Habits: here are many differences: Turks vastly drink tea, Greeks vastly drink coffee (mainly a Greek coffee called frappe, and foreign like espresso). Turks almost never (in the past never) drink wine, Greeks mainly drink wine, Turks rather drink raki, a drink which resembles Balkan rakija and levantine arak. They also drink a lot of ayran. Greeks have no idea what this thing is. Some Turks eat on the floor. The only case Greeks Would eat on the ground would be on a pick nick in the countryside. Greeks prefer dogs, Turks cats. Greeks keep shoes on when visiting a foreign house, Turks remove their shoes in such occasions
Music: part of music is identical, part of music is nothing alike. The music of anatolian Greeks is identical to Turkish. Both are a blend of Byzantine, Central asian and Arabic music. Greeks of mainland have a vastly different music, intermediate to Balkan and italian. Greeks of Ionian islands have purely Italian.
Cuisine: Turks dont seem to love pork, and have a love for spicy food. Greeks consume pork more than any kind of meat, and rarely like spicy food. Greeks also have a very old pasta tradition, nearly equal to Italian. Turkey has no more pasta than manti ans eriste, both resembling central asian instead of south European pasta.
Architecture: Turkish architecture is the ottoman vernacular house. Greece has this type only in Northern mainland regions. Southern Greece and Greek islands architecture is similar to Southern European
Language: Greek language is a centum (Western) indoeuropean language with "Spanish" sounds, Turkish is an altaic language
As a whole, Greeks are a European nation with limited Oriental influences (and we are not the only, at least all Iberians, Maltese, South Italians, and to a higher extend south Balkaners are European nations with oriental influences). Turks are a blend of central asian, caucasian and persian civilization, with some levantine influence
Oh yeah wait till you visit Morocco you will either love it or hate it but I'll say this Moroccans are much much more warmer than Turkish
And how did you find it that in Capadokia the cave-churches build from Christian greeks part of greek heritage, have Turkish names and there is not any reference to Greece/greek/hellenic/byzantine?

You dont care about history because you must
Because we were slaves for 400 years
Can you imagine how greeks suffering from all this tortures?turks were selling us as slaves at bazars
They were raping our women they were Stealing out kids and made them genissaries
we were not allowed to build big houses because it would be an insult to you
We had 80% mores taxes
And much more
50% of greeks were living at the mountains
Only at 1870-1900 things became better and we were ''friends'' but that was it

The average person just wants to be left in peace to live their life. They want a comfortable home, food to eat and to be happy. Once you start bringing politics and power into the mix, that’s when the problems start.
It’s why I’m not surprised the majority of the people in both videos were mainly positive towards one another. One thing that one of the Turkish men said was very important. The wars of our grandfathers. Let’s leave them as the wars of or grandfathers and look towards the future.
Very cool idea, glad you guys collaborated and really enjoyed the videos.
The same guy said also "if Greeks are not peaceful we will act accordingly.."
which is translated as : if Greeks continue "conquering" the Greek islands we should "rightfully" own, we will start a war".

There is only one rule of living Decisively together : to have trust in each other. If a sense of trust is not formed in a real sense, there will be no respect, no peace. A sense of trust is hard-won in time.
Turks are friends to their friends and enemies to their enemies.They do not hide it. .
That is why they also do not forget the very painful lessons they have learned from insidious enemies and betrayals who seem friendly. Betrayal destroys a lot of hard-earned trust.
Every flaw can be forgiven, but the betrayal of the enemy who seems friendly can never be forgiven...
And you can't respect people you don't trust.

He literally took me on to the right bus all the way to my stop and got another bus back to where he was waiting for his bus. I have never had such a kind act offered to me in my life. There's nothing wrong with Turkish people. But let's not talk about politicians!🙂

I'm from the Western Turkey. I heard a lot of stories about their Greek neighbors from my granny and whenever I go back to my hometown, there are some carvings and sctriptures in some of the houses they had to leave. I feel like it's another part of my hometown I have never had the chance to see. Like a homesick I have to fulfill. Most sincere hearthful of loves from the other side.

Greeks controled the entire economy of the city, their culture and social structure was completely European, and whenever they got married a non-Greek, this non-Greek was a French or Italian or Armenian, never middle Eastern people like Turks, Arabs etc of the city, who also usually made up their emploees
@Ğaaa let me explain a few things: 1) you confuse Greeks of Izmir with "anatolian Greeks". Anatolian Greeks CERTAINLY were heavilly middle eastern, like armenians or Christian lebanese. But Izmir Greeks, as well as Greeks from a couple of other cities (ayvalik, alacate etc) were NOT anatolian Greeks. They were descendants of Greeks who emigrated from mainland and nearby islands between 16th and early 20th centuries. The middle eastern things that felt alien to mainland Greeks, mainly came from native anatolian Greek populations, like cappadokians etc. I am very aware of what you are talking about, since, in spite of being fully Mainlander myself, i have met a lot of anatolians when i studied at Thessaloniki (a city where nearly 8/10 of the population is partially or fully anatolian) and I know what they are like.
2) Turks certainly dominated military and administration of the city, it makes sense, as they were the ottomans, and izmir was in the ottoman empire. But its well documented that nearly all of business of Izmir was ruled by Greeks and Armenians. Thus, anyone else were workers and employees of them, Turks and included
3) like Modern Greek society, the Greek community of Izmir did not really differ from other western European societies, and by the days of Izmir destruction, almost all French and Italians had nearly been assimilated by Greeks. Almost all Greeks from Izmir that i know, have an Italian or French ancestor. The rest of Izmir's society, Armenians included, certainly was nothing lile European societies, i was referring to Greeks exclusively. The Greek community was vastly different from Turkish, in terms of status, properties and everything else, and it makes sense, as not only they came from a society west of Turkey, but also were more rich, with only Turks being comparable being those of the administration, as you previously mentioned
Worth mentioned that even non-Greek Christian populations of anatolia, like karamanlides, saw European influence before muslim Turks who could live in next-door houses.
Once i recall a pic from karaman, with a Christian karamanlide, who looked nothing like a Greek (as he wasnt) being dressed in western fashion, Meanwhile his turkish neighbors wore buggy pants. That says a lot how religion alone affects societies even in the heart of anatolia, let alone when there were a lot more things to differentiate communities from each other, like in Izmir
@Ğaaa there are a few things you have to understand about Greeks: 1) Orthodoxy and Church in general has never been a limit for Greeks, Even if it was for Russians. Religion on the contrary yes, has been a limit (i mean Christianity vs islam). Lol i have no idea where you got the idea that "Orthodoxy is closer to islam than to the rest of Christinity (????) But reality is that Islam is not closer to Orthodox Church than it is to the rest of Christian Churches, let alone Orthodox Christianity being closer to islam than to.. the rest of Christianity. In fact Even in medieval Greece, there was an entire class of mixed Greeks/French or Venetians, sometimes Dutch, who were called "gasmuloi". Let alone in modern years
For at least 200 years there have been more Roman Catholic foreigners living in Greece, usually married to natives, than Orthodox foreigners. Greeks in Izmir didnt have strong bounds/limits with other Europeans of the city, and the fact that a great part of them had italians and French in their family tree was a good evidence of that. I know that they lived in seperated communities (defined by nationality, Nothing to do with religion) but they easily interacted and intermarried with other Europeans
Greeks were never seen as "more like Russians" they have always been seen as western, in spite pf being Orthodox, mainly because Greece has associated itself more with Ancient Greece than Byzantine empire. Greek Orthodox Church has more Roman Catholic influences than any other Orthodox Church, and Roman Catholic Greeks have never faced a single problem from their Orthodox countrymen (unlike, say, catholic yugoslavs)
The number of French and Italians in Izmir dramatically decreased after 1923. There were even pure italians coming here with the exchange, let alone Italian-Greek hybrids
Also, when i mentioned karamanlides being dressed in Western style, i didnt mean it as an example of being more developed than their muslim neighbors (i have no idea if they actually were), my point in this part was how religion alone, even in a Christian population in the middle of Asia like karamanlides, could alone make a population more Western and create ties with Europe than its muslim counterparts. If western=developed.. that is at least not what I said
As for Greeks of Izmir, they ruled the biggest part of the industry (not only small or medium companies), and had a higher education than most of other populations in the city. That alone says enough on who was more rich. Yes, Maybe Turkish buraeocrats were rich as well, but on average, Greeks were richer than most of Turks and other ethnicities in Izmir, as they ruled most of its free market market part.
"In fact had Greeks of izmir been more developed thye Would have won against us" quite the opposite, these people didnt even bother join the army, as they were too "smooth" because of their lifestyle. The one who usually wins is the "sharp", who comes from working class
To make it clear, speaking of developement, i repeat that i am not talking about native anatolian Greeks, but Greeks of Izmir and a couple of other communities recently founded by Mainlanders
@Melisa güleroglu [🇹🇷] official sources say that 1.3 million Greeks came from Turkey in 1923, 900 thousands from anatolia and 400 thousands from Eastern Thrace (Which is not in anatolia), Meanwhile the number of Natives in Greece was 5,5 millions. Lol where did you read that "Natives was 3-4 million" or that "anatolians who came to Greece were 2 millions"? That is rediculous at least. Also, where did you read that anatolian Greeks had a higher birth rate than European Greeks? If anything, a LOT of anatolian Greeks emigrated to Usa and Germany a few decades after coming to Greece (others directly) and a LOT of them died out of hunger during the first days of their arrival, as well as during the world war 2.
Hardly 20% of Greeks have partially and fully anatolian ancestry. That is faaaaar from "most". Unless of course yoy Have sources proving the opposite
@Melisa güleroglu [🇹🇷] i think you confuse all Greeks, with Pontic/trabzon Greeks, who indeed are caucasian. Greek Mainlanders are considered southern European, like Italians and Spaniards
I have visited 20 countries on Europe but not Greek yet. I hope I can visit Greek after pandemic and make good friendships there. We are all humanbeings.
u welcome my friend!
I grew up in Turkey as a son of a high-ranking soldier. Naturally, I saw myself as a Turkish nationalist. But this nationalism has never made me see me as superior or dominant over other nations. I have always loved the Greeks and other neighbors. Your history, mythology, natural beauties and people are very beautiful ama this amazes me ^^. When I was young, asked my parents about the Greeks, I always heard very positive things. Long story short, two beautiful countries in a common geography. The truth is I've never had a Greek friend but I'm sure I would be very pleased. I hope I can visit Greece one day. γεια σας Έλληνες φίλοι μου
You are always welcomed in Greece my friend i wish i can meet you and drink together coffee
If you just had a look at the map, you would know that middle east (turkey) and southern europe (Greece) are not a "common geography". Common geography is the area of turkey and iran, iraq, syria etc. Not Greece and Europe
@@Chris-xb7gm by saying this, you are ignoring Thrace and the Aegean region. Even if you ignore it, you can not deny that we have lived in a common geography for centuries and are culturally influenced by each other.
@@mrimpressive4812 I hope one day my friend 🙏
@@TheRothmetal thrace (eastern thrace) hardly is 3% of turkey, and has nothing to do with europe other than geography. Other than that, eastern thrace included, you are a purely middle eastern country. Evwn the 1/4 of your language is consted of arabic and persian words, not to talk about religion, music, bazaars etc
Guys, we people have nothing to fight for. The whole conflict is a game of the governors. We are literally brothers, we share a similar cuisine, have partly common vocabulary, but our blood and emotions are the exact same 🇬🇷❤️🇹🇷
Sorry to burst your bubble but we are not brothers. Governors are elected by people so people are partly responsible for what governors decide to do. We don't have the same vocabulary. Our language derives from ancient Greek. The fact that we have turkish words in our vocabulary is due to the sad fact of being occupied for 400 years.

Merhaba Yunanistan, videonun başında ilk çiftin yapmış olduğu açıklama beni çok sevindirdi, bu iki çiften sonra gelen 2 bayan belli ki içlerinde farklı duygular besliyorlar evet bu çok normal bir düşünce, video da birisi diyor ki okullarda bize ne öğretiliyorsa onu öğreniyoruz, bu çok doğru, ama okullarda öğrendiğimizle kalırsak maalesef başkalarının düşünceleri ile yaşarız. (Kitaplar her zaman doğruları yazmaz.) Hayatı kendi gözümüzle görmeli ve buna göre hayatımızı şekillendirmeliyiz. Bunu tabi ki de izlerken normal olarak karşıladım, fakat bu 2 bayandan sonra konuşanlar kesinlikle güzel düşüncelere sahipler onları tebrik ediyorum. Maalesef iki ülke arasında ırkçı düşünceler olacaktır (keşke olmasa) fakat bu tür ırkçı düşünceler, hükümetlerin içine karışınca işte böyle propagandalarla insanları kötü düşüncelerle etkilemeye ve içlerine kötülük tohumları ekmeye çalışıyorlar. Yüzyıllar önce yaşanmış olan kötü zamanlar mutlaka olmuştur, fakat bunlarla birlikte yaşarsak ve bunları geride bırakamazsak geleceğimizi düzeltemeyiz. Buradan Yunan halkına selamlar. Genel olarak videodaki insanların düşüncelerini beğendim.

Hello neighbor!
From Tekirdağ, Turkey 🇹🇷🇬🇷
Γεια σας, όλη η Ελλάδα και ο ελληνικός λαός. Χαιρετισμούς και αγάπη σε όλους σας από την Προύσα.
As a Turkish person who grew up in Greek community in Melbourne Australia (noting it has the highest population of Greek people outside of Athens) unfortunately there is a lot of hate from Greek people toward Turks. Whenever there was political tensions, we would avoid going to our regular shopping place because if anyone heard us speak Turkish and recognise it, they would show it with their expressions and make comments in Greek to the other people. Greek people I thought were good friends apparently hated Turks and revealed it later on which ruined our friendship of course - I was always nice to them. I'm in my mid-30s now and I feel a bit of a shift with the younger generation though but no longer live amongst the Greek community. I would have liked to report better interactions but unfortunately that wasn't the case. So now I won't form relationships with Greek people - I've been burned. My grandparents lived in Crete and Greece and our culture in western Turkey is very similar to that of Greeks - maybe even more than the other parts ofTurkey. I also want to add that not once have any Turkish people I've met made racist comments toward Greeks - they view them as siblings - kardeş which the comments section here easily demonstrates.
There are both good and bad people, nationalists and democratic people in both countries. We greeks have undergone much pain from your nation but the majority of the people have left it today in the past and don't feel the turkish people as enemies. Only the political emperialist scene is making the problem. I only pray for peace and friendship 🙏🏿
as a greek person im very sad to hear that. theres always bad people. whether its bad turks or bad greeks. but most of us are good, and i hope you give us another shot!
I heard from a friend of mine (who is from Athens and lived in Melbourne for several years) that the mentality of the Greek community there is very narrowminded and strange, even towards other Greeks (who later immigrated in Australia), so don't get upset with all Greek people, just avoid those from Melbourne!
Not only greeks, but also people living far from their country can become a little more conservative and fanatical nationalists.
In order to feel safe in a foreign country, they prefer those who are like them,who share the same culture.
At the root of hostile attitudes is always a sense of insecurity.
Such a drama queen

My theory is that Twitter haters are people that shy away from cameras.
Noisy minorities, trolls, teenagers having nothing better to do than start a " comment war " ect

what about Turkish imperialism?what about mavi vatan?why the Turks constantly threat my country Greece,violate our territorial rights and demand half of our Aegean islands and north eastern Greece for Turkey?IT looks like there is a VERY serious problem with Turkish imperialism.i read every day at the news about new turkish weapons and advanced military technology.Turkiye,why do you need all these weapons,really?
When I was living in the Netherlands if I meet with people who are friendly,lovely and smile a lot they were %80 Greek. So ❤
We had a lot to talk about everything , about our cultures, I felt like at home. When i wanted to eat smth of Turkish cuisine if I can’t find a Turkish place I was going to a Greek restaurant and every time they were so nice to me when I say I am Turkish.

why don't you ask about the situation at Cyprus ?
Μακάρι να ήταν τα πράγματα τόσο απλά. Αλλά δεν είναι. Είναι δύσκολή η συνύπαρξη με τους γείτονες. Δεν είναι όλα τα προβλήματα μεταξύ μας παρελθόν, ώστε να λέμε ότι τώρα είναι όλα ρόδινα. Για πείτε το αυτό στους κατοίκους των νησιών απέναντι από την Τουρκία με τα τουρκικά αλιευτικά να πλησιάζουν μία ανάσα στα ακριτικά νησιά μας - τωρινή κατάσταση αυτή, όχι παρελθόν. Για πείτε το αυτό στους Κυπρίους που έψαχναν πού είναι τα παιδιά τους και πλέον ζουν τα αδέρφια και ακόμα ψάχνουν πού είναι, για παράδειγμα, ένας Κύπριος ψάχνει τον αδερφό του, αν είναι ζωντανός ή μήπως βρει την σορό του για να κάνει μια ταφή αξιοπρεπή. Κύπριοι μού είπαν ότι υπήρχαν γυναίκες αρραβωνιασμένες που δεν παντρεύτηκαν ποτέ γιατι ο αρραβωνιαστικός τους ήταν αγνοούμενος και δεν ήταν σίγουρες αν ζει ή σκοτώθηκε κατά την εισβολή. Ο αγνοούμενος μπορεί να είναι και χειρότερο από τον νεκρό, γιατί δεν ξέρεις αν θα ελπίζεις, αν μπορείς να έχεις "closure", να βάλεις έναν επίλογο σε μια δύσκολη στιγμή και να προχωρήσεις στην ζωή σου. Μιλάμε για το 1974, δεν είναι αρχαία ιστορία. Και τώρα, πόσα ξοδεύει το ελληνικό κράτος στην άμυνα, γιατί δεν μπορείς να πεις στον γείτονα "περάστε, παρακαλώ" αν θελήσει να εισβάλει - λέτε ότι φταίνε μόνο οι κυβερνήσεις, αλλά η εκάστοτε ελληνική κυβέρνηση δεν προκαλεί με ρητορικές απόκτησης εδαφών, όπως γινεται από την άλλη πλευρά, άρα δεν είναι "οι κυβερνήσεις" στον πληθυντικό, είναι η μία πλευρά ξεκάθαρα. Είναι πολλά για να γράψει κανείς σε ένα σχόλιο. Ούτε καν αναφέρομαι σε ιστορία και σε γενοκτονίες (Αρμένιοι, Πόντιοι). Μιλήστε με Κούρδους (έχω γνωρίσει από κοντά) να δείτε τί θα σας πουν - για τωρινές καταστάσεις, για το πώς απαγορεύτηκε να μιλάνε την γλώσσα τους στην Τουρκία. Όσο για ομοιότητες μεταξύ Ελλήνων και Τούρκων, υπάρχουν κυρίως στα φαγητά, όχι σε άλλους τομείς. Γλωσσολογικά, η τουρκική ανήκει σε άλλη οικογένεια γλωσσών, δεν μοιάζουν οι γλώσσες. Θρησκευτικά είναι γνωστό ότι διαφέρουν. Πολιστιμικά επίσης υπάρχουν διαφορές. Η θέση της γυναίκας στην Τουρκία είναι διαφορετική. Έχουν ζητήματα σοβαρά στο θέμα ανθρωπίνων δικαιωμάτων. Άρα, θα ήθελα να πω ότι δεν μπορούμε να τα απλοποιούμε όλα, να λέμε ότι μοιάζουμε, ότι είναι όλα καλά, ότι είμαστε φίλοι και δεν υπάρχει κανένα πρόβλημα. Ναι, σε προσωπικό επίπεδο, και εγώ έχω συναντήσει Τούρκους που άλλοι μπορεί να ειναι ευγενικοί ή άλλοι όχι. Αλλά δεν μπορούμε να αγνοήσουμε γεγονότα σημαντικά. Το λέω μετά λύπης. Γιατί έχω ζήσει στο εξωτερικό, έχω φίλους από άλλες χώρες και το βρίσκω συναρπαστικό αυτό. Αλλά είναι γεγονός ότι η συγκεκριμένη χώρα παραμένει ένας δύσκολος γείτονας.

Είναι ένα πολύ συναισθηματικό και μονόπλευρο προκατειλημμένο σχόλιο.
το 1974, οι Τούρκοι δεν πήγαν στην Κύπρο για να συλλέξουν μαργαρίτες. Οι Τούρκοι επενέβησαν στρατιωτικά στην Κύπρο με το δικαίωμα που απορρέει από διεθνείς συμφωνίες. Όπως είναι σήμερα, δεν σέβεστε τις διεθνείς συμφωνίες και το δίκαιο. Νομίζεις ότι το ψέμα και η ανεντιμότητα είναι πονηρά..
Γιατί δεν αναφέρεις ποτέ τις σφαγές που διέπραξαν οι φασίστες Γρίβας και Σαμψών; Ακόμη και ο Πρόεδρος Μακάριος έπρεπε να εγκαταλείψει το νησί για να αποφύγει να σκοτωθεί από αυτούς τους φασίστες.
Θα βλέπαμε να καταστρέφονται οι Τούρκοι και να προσαρτάται η Κύπρος από την Ελλάδα ?
Γιατί να μην μιλήσουμε για τις προσπάθειες της Ελλάδας να παραβιάσει τις διεθνείς συμφωνίες στη θάλασσα των νησιών ?
Γιατί δεν μου λες για τους αθώους ανθρώπους που πνίγηκαν από τους Έλληνες με τις μπότες τους τρυπημένες ?
Δεν ξέρεις για όλα αυτά; Ή εξαπατάτε τον εαυτό σας με ψέματα επειδή η αλήθεια δεν λειτουργεί για σας;
Εσείς και οι ομοϊδεάτες σας μπορεί να είστε ηλίθιοι. Αλλά οι Τούρκοι είναι πολύ έξυπνοι για να πιστέψουν τέτοια φτηνά ψέματα.
Δεν έχουμε αλυτρωτική διεκδίκηση στο έδαφος της Ελλάδας και δεν έχει συμβεί ποτέ...
Αλλά θα προστατεύσουμε τα δικαιώματά μας που απορρέουν από διεθνείς συμφωνίες με κάθε κόστος.
