After 5 years of running without any problems the Turks decided that Panagia Soumela in Trapezounta should stop its liturgies. The reason they gave is that the monastery needs to undergo renovation because the building is not in good condition. Many of the Pontians in the area believe that this is just an excuse so Panagia Soumela will not work again seeing as Erdogan is trying to make Islam the only religion in Turkey.
