(7 Dec 2017) Recep Tayyip Erdogan arrived in Athens Thursday for the first official visit to Greece by a Turkish president in decades, with Greece hoping the trip will help improve often frosty ties with its neighbour and NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation) ally.
Erdogan was greeted by a guard of honour at the airport and headed to central Athens, where he met Greek President Prokopis Pavlopoulos.
On Friday, he will travel to northeastern Greece to meet members of the country's Muslim minority.
Security was tight in the Greek capital, with roads closed and demonstrations banned in the centre of Athens.
