The Turkish embassy in Athens today wished " Happy Easter " to Greek citizens with a post on Twitter written in Greek and Turkish.
Ortodoks vatandaşlarımızın ve Yunan halkının Paskalya Yortusunu tebrik ediyoruz.
Ευχόμαστε στους Ορθόδοξους συμπολίτες μας και στον Ελληνικό λαό Καλό Πάσχα.

"We wish our fellow Orthodox citizens and the Greek people a Happy Easter," said the post of the Turkish embassy, which less than a month ago had "congratulated the people and the government of the Hellenic Republic" for the National Day of March 25 - Greek Independence Day.
It is recalled that that post, which is part of a wider context of improving Greek-Turkish relations, had provoked reactions in Turkey, irritating the devotees of the "Blue Homeland" theory Cihat Yaycı and Cem Gürdeniz.
