Russia warns Turkey over Hagia Sophia move

Russia and the entire Christian nexus can't do shit. It is Turkish territory. Turkey gets to decide what it will do.
The judiciary will make its decision. This decision belongs to Turkey. Ayasofya is a property belonging to Turkey.

Which way is it likely to go? What kicked this debate off?

Exactly. It is an internal matter of Turkey. The fact that Christian crusaders are suddenly forcing Turkey speaks for itself.
 
Russia Warns Turkey Over Hagia Sophia Move

Russian officials and the Orthodox church on Monday urged caution over calls in Turkey to alter the status of the Hagia Sophia, the historic former cathedral in Istanbul.

Turkey's top court is debating whether one of the architectural wonders of the world can be redesignated as a mosque, a move that could inflame tensions with the West and the Christian community.

A ruling expected in the coming days on the site, which is currently a museum.

The head of Russia's Orthodox Church Patriarch Kirill said he was "deeply concerned" by the moves, describing Hagia Sophia as "one of the greatest monuments of Christian culture".

"A threat to Hagia Sophia is a threat to the whole of Christian civilisation, and therefore to our spirituality and history," the Orthodox church leader said in a statement.

"To this day, for every Russian Orthodox person, Hagia Sophia is a great Christian shrine," he said, urging the Turkish government to be cautious.

He said that altering the current neutral status of the historic building would cause "deep pain" among the Russian people.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the future of the historic site was a domestic Turkish issue, but added that he hoped Hagia Sophia's status as a World Heritage Site would be "taken into account".

He said the former cathedral was a "world masterpiece" that has "sacred value" for Russians.

Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Vershinin told reporters Russia hopes "the global significance of the object will be taken into account".

Hagia Sophia was first constructed as a cathedral in the Christian Byzantine Empire in the sixth century but was converted into a mosque after the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in 1453.

Transforming it into a museum was a key reform of the post-Ottoman authorities under the modern republic's founder Mustafa Kemal Ataturk.

But calls for it to serve again as a mosque have sparked anger among Christians and tensions between historic foes and uneasy NATO allies Turkey and Greece.

When the Russians were slaying the Tatars and Chechens they didn't care about culture and civilization -- but now over a building they jumping up and down like a horny goat. I saw either tear this fucking building down or turn it into a Mosque to hell with them and their civilization.

Bro it is not and as per Islamic teaching we have to respect that

After the Ottomans' took over 700-800 years it was a Mosque -- these Christians forget how Ivan the Terror build Moscow buildings using remnants of Masjids and used Muslim slave labor for it as well.

To hell with Russia and the rest.

Bro I am not talking about history but Islamic preaching
 
Oh, here we go again,

Without Mimar Sinan, there would not be a building called Hagia Sophia at the moment. Unfortunately, while a handful of fools exhibit truth-ing game here, they also express all their ignorance on the subject.

Have been in the Hagia Sophia recently, truly an architectural master piece. During the Ottoman rule it was converted into a mosque, the remnants of Islamic faith are still on display there. Nevertheless it is Turkeys internal matter, no need for the Ruskies to poke their nose into it. Whatever Turkey decides we are with them period.
 
It could serve as a mosque and a cathedral at same time.
Prophet Mohammad pbuh allowed Christians to do their prayers in mosques in their own way. Christianity is in no way contrary to Islam. But Judaism is
