[edit] Number of Greeks Remaining

This article seems to contradict that on Greeks in Turkey (which references it). That page gives the number of Greeks remaining in Istanbul as 3,000 and the total number in Turkey as 20,000. This page gives the total number in Turkey as 5,000. Which is correct?

I have no idea... There are many different sources on the net about this... as far as i know, the number of the Greeks in Istanbul is between 2,500-5,000 now. the figure of 20,000 probably includes the Greeks on Imbros and Tenedos (but they are too few now...), so, maybe some Antiochian Greeks are also included...

[edit] Exchange rates

So how much was 69.5 million lira in 1955 in USD, GBP, or some other well-known reference currency? The Turkish central bank's historical exchange rates series only goes back to 1996. cab 10:04, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
