Old Metropolis, Veria, Greece. Built in the 11th century and recently restored, it is not in the best state of preservation - for example, almost all of its mosaics have been lost, so it is even more surprising that many of its frescoes have survived. This cathedral is also one of the largest surviving basilicas in the Balkans.

🔴 Turkey's Permanent Representative to the UN questioned the sovereignty of Greek islands in the east Aegean, claiming Greece had violated the Paris and Lausanne treaties by militarizing the islands

🔸 Mr. Sinirlioglou accuses Greece of violating the treaties of Lausanne (1923) and Paris (1947) . Especially with regard to the Treaty of Lausanne, he notes that it essentially confirms a decision taken in London, on the basis of which they were granted to Greece in February 1914. According to Turkish reasoning, this decision means that "Greek sovereignty over the islands of the East Aegean is dependent on their demilitarization "Reiterates that the demilitarization regime concerns Lesvos, Chios, Samos and Ikaria , while adding that for Lemnos and Samothrace the forecasts are even stricter due to "proximity to the Turkish hinterland"
