Restituirea frizelor Parthenonului va face parte din dezbaterea privind o apropiere Londra-UE, spune premierul grec

Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis stated that the return of the Parthenon sculptures will be part of future discussions between the UK and the EU. He emphasized that this issue is significant for Europe, not just Greece. Mitsotakis plans to intensify Greece's claims to the British Museum, where the sculptures have been for over two centuries. Greece argues that the sculptures were taken illegally in 1802, while London claims they were legally acquired. Mitsotakis proposed a unique cultural partnership with the British Museum in exchange for the sculptures, but legal restrictions limit the museum's ability to return them.
