Daily: TURKEY AND GREECE – Bad Blood and Lots Of It, with author Defne Suman
“It's hard to remove the word ‘invasion’ from the heads of Turkish people.”
“I talk about the Greek ‘administration’, not the Greek invasion.”
“Turkey today is actually not as cosmopolitan as it was during the Ottoman period.”
“Nationalism is the disease of our century.”
“If you don't talk about the past, that wound will kill you.”
“Turkey needs a lot of healing. And culture and storytelling lets us heal ourselves from the wounds of the past.”
Presented by Alex Andreou. Produced by Andrew Harrison. Assistant producers: Jelena Sofronijevic and Jacob Archbold. Music by Kenny Dickinson. Audio production by Alex Rees. THE BUNKER is a Podmasters Production
