"Sir, why do the nationalists think like this?"

 Looking for a life in Turkey and Greece irrespective of ethnic boundaries

 In this article, Dr. Hercules Millas tells about his personal experiences and that of his environment, that is to say his Greek family and Turkish friends, with the real or imagined animosity between Greeks and Turks. Born in Istanbul from Greek parents, Dr. Millas lived the first 30 years of his life as a Greek among Turks. Forced by circumstances, he then migrated to Greece, but retained in close contact with his Turkish friends and acquaintances. His studies on the images that Greeks have of Turks and vice versa, brought him renown and respect at both sides of the Aegean.
