Greek PM Sees Path for Return of Parthenon Marbles from British Museum
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer met in London, discussing the possibility of returning the Parthenon Marbles to Greece. A Greek government source indicated that the UK would not oppose their return if an agreement is reached with the British Museum. While discussions continue, the UK government remains firm on its legal stance against restitution. Athens claims the marbles were taken illegally in the 19th century, while London argues they were acquired legally. A potential cultural partnership may pave the way for their return.
