 Cypriot archbishop slams Ankara for denying him visa
Cypriot archbishop slams Ankara for denying him visa to visit patriarch

Archbishop Chrysostomos of Cyprus yesterday condemned Ankara for refusing to issue him a visa so that he may conduct a planned visit to Istanbul-based Ecumenical Patriarch Vartholomaios later this week.

«Although I believed that Turkey had wanted to show Europe, which it aims to join, and the rest of the world that it is a democratic and liberal country, it has thrown off its mask,» Chrysostomos said.

European Union members should be aware that the candidate state «does not respect human rights,» he added.

The archbishop said he believed Ankara's move was provoked by its opposition to Nicosia's plans to explore for oil in the eastern Mediterranean.
