Unresolved: New law on minority schools might work for Greek but not Armenian children

The new regulations that came into effect on March 20 regarding minority schools in Turkey are causing confusion among educators, who claim the latest changes don't solve the problems faced by the children of foreign nationals, writes the Turkish Hurriyet Daily.

Istanbul deputy education director Nedat İlhan told the Hürriyet Daily News that Turkey has diplomatic relations with Greece but not with Armenia, and Armenian immigrants come to Turkey illegally. The children of illegal Armenian immigrants will still not be able to attend school regardless of the changes in the regulations.
