Supported. 45.145. Noted. “The question of Ecumenism” of the Greek Orthodox Patriarch is a matter of theological and doctrinal debate within the Orthodox Church. In relations with third parties, the usage of the term “ecumenical” is at the will of the Patriarch. As confirmed by the decision of the Venice commission in 2010, Turkish authorities are not under any obligation to actively use this title/terminology when referring to the Patriarchate. In the Turkish system, religious institutions (Muslim or non-Muslim) cannot uphold de jure legal personality. Yet, the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate has been using de facto legal personality through its foundations. The Law on Foundations is being implemented effectively. There is no impediment for them also to establish new foundations. 45.146. Noted. Turkey understands the need of the Greek Orthodox Community to train its clergy, yet the solution should be in conformity with the Turkish legislation
