On Wednesday night, the Ecumenical Patriarch was contacted for the third time by the Turkish Minister of Health, Fahrettin Koca, who asked about the progress of his health and assured him that the services of his Ministry would always be at his disposal.

The Patriarch, moved by the Minister’s interest, thanked him warmly and wished him a happy New Year, as well as strength in his many months of efforts to combat Covid-19 in the country.
