1st of all you are wrong, I do not think that most of the Greek people hate Turkish people. Unfortunately some of them still hate us becoz of the problems in the past.
2nd, it would be better for you to ask a question like "Turks, do u hate foreigners?" in the category Türkiye. You have to interest in Turkish peoples ideas about foreigners if u will visit Türkiye.
I m sure all the answers will be "NO".
I love Greeks, Italians, Germans, English, Americans, Arabs, Asians, every citizen in the world except frenchs.
Good luck and enjoy Türkiye...

Because back then, like a long time ago, the Greeks and the Turks were kind of at war. Greeks killed a lot of Turks, some Turks raped a lot of Greek women and children, bla bla.. And I'm Greek and we don't HATE Turkish people, we just dislike them alittle

No Greeks don t hate Turkish people.I know many stories of good and bad Turks and Greeks during their coexistence .Anyway if you are half Italian you know the expression " IL Turci" used to scare people.I personally think that the rest of Europe does not want Turkey and used us in the past,saying The Greeks don t want you.That is why we now support Turkeys entrance to Europe because we encourage the democratic powers in Turkey this way. The truth is that there are also other nations also having problems with Turkey,like Armenians but I think we must live in peace and make a good neighborhood

I am half Greek half Italian and I love Turkish people. Politicians sometimes bang heads. There are a l of things our government does that the Turks dont like and vice versa for us. Honestly I dont even know who is right. But people are great. I think it was grat that we sent help to Tur during the earthquake and as if it was planned soon after we were ht with one and the Turks graciously retned the favor. We are neighbors We look virtually the same. THere arpeople in both countries with eithern ones ancestory or background. W eeat the same food, similar shows on TV, same clothing, same music. I like them and why can t we all get along? think it is a myth that either party hates each other. There are some idiots on both sides but they exist everywhere.
I noticed that Turks in eneral dont like Arabs and do not eem to have a problem with anyone else. ot even Armenians despite the fact that ty always talk bad about Turks. They ike the Armenian people in general but do not appreciate the uneducated ones that have no idea about history and talk crap.
Also an addition about someones comment about Turks beng unedcuated their litreacy rate is: 93% . For acountry with 70 million people th is a pretty good number.
LOVE THE WORLD!

This question could be rephrased as: "British, do you hate French?" because of the Hundred Years war some centuries ago, or "French, do you hate Spanish?" because of the fishing problems!...
In the past we have had differences and it is normal to have differences as we share the same borders, the same air, the same sea, however, I believe that contemporary Greeks do not hate contemporary Turks. What for?
We are very similar as social structure, family structure, cuisine, mentality and way of living. The only real difference between the two countries is Religion but as long as we respect each other's religion, there is no problem.
I personally do not hate Turks, but am always afraid of what their government might do. I believe that Turkish people and Turkish government are two different entities, not really expressing each others' views...

I am not from Greece but i've been there for four times. I worked there during the summer and i can tell you that many people from the city where i've been hated the turks (it was a city close to the border with Turkey). Have a great holiday in Crete! Greecs are amazing people! They really helped me when i need it without even knowing me for a long time.

I am one hundred percent Turk and I hate Greeks. Besause they have stolen the Agean islands from us. The Greek government always creates a problem on the Agean sea. It s Agean dispute in wikipedia you can find more information. Moreover, most important thing about this case: They ve occupated Cyprus and killed Turkish LOTS OF citizens.

You guys dont know the history. The turks did very bad things. When the greek people were going back to greece after independence the turks tried to kill them. They are violent ************* bastards. Do u not hear all the people who dissappear over there?
