When the Greek main opposition party, the Pan-Hellenic Socialist Movement Party (PASOK), announced Turkish-minority member Ms. Gulbeyaz Karahasan as the candidate for governor of the Drama-Kavala-Iskeche provinces, an enormous conflict took place in the country.

The government and the Church reacted to this choice as Macedonia-Thrace Minister George Kalantzis said, “If Karahasan says ’I’m a Greek’, there won’t be any problem.” Speaking to Cihan News Agency, Karahasan said she is not daunted by the criticisms, and defined the preference of PASOK Leader George Papandreou as a historical decision.
