A right-wing Greek newspaper launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Rishi Sunak after his abrupt cancellation of talks with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.
Sunak snubbed Mitsotakis just hours before the pre-planned meeting after the Greek Prime Minister raised the repatriation of ancient historic artefacts .
For clarity, I’m in favour of changing the terminology to highlight the historical injustice.
I just thought it’s important to admit that it’s a recent change of linguistic preferences even in the most official Greek publications. Indeed, up to the last couple of years, the adjectival “Elgin” was used in Greek as an accusation of theft, not a recognition of ownership.
