Hillary Revolution to Religious Affairs

Aydin explained the rationale behind this new action as follows, “There is a discrepancy in this field. Especially Istanbul is a city that is visited by foreigners including foreign officials. The mufti that will be in charge in this city should be able to directly contact with our guests. For instance, when Hillary Clinton came to Istanbul she asked to contact the leaders of religious communities. However there was no high-ranking official speaking a foreign language.”
