Even the mayor of Istanbul, Ekrem Imamoglu, reacted to the ban on the entry into Turkey of the Regional Governor of Central Macedonia, Apostolos Tzitzikosta, who is in Izmir as the vice-president of the commission of the regions and the president of the Euro-Mediterranean Commission ARLEM.
Speaking to the correspondent of Open TV in Istanbul, Mr. Imamoglou said that “I managed to get a very brief information about the incident that happened today from my friend Kostas (ss. Bakoyannis). After seeing the details of the incident, I will inform both the public and all the Balkan cities tomorrow.”
The Turks, for their part, confirmed the incident, but gave funny excuses.
The Anadolu news agency reported that Mr. Tzitzikostas was detained by the Turkish authorities in Izmir due to “technical problem”, as there was… similarity of his name with a person, who has been banned from entering the country.
