GREEK TURKISH TALKS 1978-1981


 During a summit that took place in Montreux in 1978 between the Prime Ministers of Greece and Turkey, it was agreed that bilateral talks between the two countries would continue.   During the Montreux summit, it was made clear that the views of Athens and Ankara diverged on all issues that exacerbated Greek-Turkish relations as a result the prospect of reaching an immediate solution seemed unrealistic. 

Unfortunately, even today Turkey is making aggressive remarks about Greece and Cyprus saying that Greece is "occupying" the islands of the eastern Mediterranean which, obvously, are Greek. Erdogan believes he is the leader of the Ottoman Empire!
