Greece's prime minister hopes the handover of remains believed to belong to medieval ruler Tsar Samuel will strengthen the case for Britain returning the Parthenon sculptures, The Guardian reports.
Greece's prime minister says the handover of remains believed to belong to Tsar Samuel should persuade Britain that 'truth, reason, justice and morality' demand a similar move.
Guardian columnist Simon Jenkins contrasts the Parthenon marbles case with the Bayeux tapestry to argue for the marbles' return to Athens.
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis argues the Bayeux tapestry's loan to Britain shows historic artefacts can move between nations without disputes over ownership.
Kyriakos Mitsotakis said Greece will not accept an arrangement recognising British Museum ownership of the sculptures, even as he voiced hope for a resolution.
