Calling on Turkish government to convert Hagia Sofia Mosque into a church, HDP MP Hüda Kaya: “No offence, this is one of the distorted policies of the ruling, courtier, sectarian and Umayyad mindsets. There is no such law. All this was made up after the Qur'an and the Prophet. Hagia Sophia is not in any way a site where a power or any power can take decisions to impose sanctions on it by themselves or open and close it arbitrarily.”

Turkey’s Council of State has decided the 1934 cabinet decision to turn Hagia Sophia into a museum contravenes the law, paving the way for converting it to mosque again. (ILKHA)
