istanbul lisesi: It is a great pity that the good tradition of the intercultural exchange in the pre-Christmas period was suspended at a school with a long history of German-Turkish friendship, the government said, according to Deutsche Welle. The elite high school was founded more than a century ago, employs around 35 German teachers and is co-financed by German public funds. We do not understand the surprising decision of the leadership at Istanbul Lisesi, said the foreign ministry. Each December, the school has a small celebration for Christmas and teaches pupils about the holiday. According to an email seen by German news agency DPA, the teachers cannot even mention Christmas inside their classroom. One week after the school's choir was prevented from singing at the German consulate in Istanbul, they reportedly canceled the festivities.
