that may be true before 2000..but after 2000 many thing changed.i tell you as a turkish citizen i have been to greece 5 times and when i was asked where i was from and replied as from turkey...the reaction that i get most of the time is... welcome neighbour ;)
and it is the same for the greeks when they visit turkey too
after 2000 of course
I hope relations are wonderful between your two great countries, I really do.
I don't see how such anger as my friends saw could subside for any reason in the last 5 years, but if it has, good for you guys. :)
