On the morning of Thursday, November 5, 2026, a delegation of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) visited the Ecumenical Patriarchate. It was led by Dr. Fatih Tuna, Vice President of the party faction in Polis, in charge of External Relations, and Mrs. Saliha Demirer, President of the Women's Department of the Polis party. They were accompanied by their executives and partners. The visitors were welcomed at Fanari by the Most Reverend Metropolitan of Geron Derko, Mr. Apostolos. The meeting took place in the reception rooms of the Patriarchal House in a cordial and friendly atmosphere and discussed general issues concerning the Roman Community of the City and the Ecumenical Patriarchate.

Afterwards, the visitors were guided to the Patriarchal House and, with particular interest, the Patriarchal Library.
