Athens' practice of "temporary suspension" of minority schools in Western Thrace – with a population of 150,000 Muslim Turkish minority – is part of Greece’s “assimilation and oppression” policy, said Foreign Ministry spokesman Hami Aksoy.“have been followed for decades against the Turkish minority in Western Thrace," read the statement.
