KılıçdaroÄ?lu and the heads of the religious minority communities will
exchange views during the meeting. While the spiritual leaders are
expected to put forth their needs and expectations as Turkey's
religious minorities, KılıçdaroÄ?lu is expected to share the CHP's
perspective and policies on these issues.

conducted by Pope Francis in Istanbul's Saint Esprit Catholic Church,
as a signal of the warming ties between the Roman Catholic and
Orthodox Churches.
