US invitation leads to ‘ecumenical crisis'
Turkish officials who were invited to a recent reception by US Ambassador Ross Wilson chose not to attend in protest of the fact that Greek Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew was invited to the same reception with the title of "ecumenical," a title that Ankara does not recognize.

 

The reception was held on Wednesday evening on a US Navy's guided missile destroyer, the USS Donald Cook (DDG75), moored at the Karaköy port of İstanbul, Turkish daily Milliyet reported on Friday. The daily also said that the Beyoğlu Police Department brought the issue -- Bartholomew's being invited by the US Embassy with the "ecumenical" title -- to the attention of the office of the Beyoğlu chief prosecutor, asking for investigation of the issue.  

"It was a fine reception. The patriarch gets regularly invited to US Embassy's receptions as a prominent Turkish citizen. We use this tile regularly," US Embassy Press Attaché Kathryn Schalow told Today's Zaman on Friday when asked about Milliyet's report.
