Church spokesman rules out talks between Ieronymos, Filis

Church of Greece spokesman Haris Konidaris on Wednesday said Archbishop Ieronymos will not hold talks with Education Minister Nikos Filis on the issue of religious classes at schools.

Filis recently said that any consultation on the changes proposed by the left-led government will take place after the end of the current academic year.

The Holy Synod, the Church’s governing body, was expected to discuss the matter on Wednesday.
