1- Assyrian Church built and fund from the Assurian community and not Turkey
So you want to say the mosques in Greece are not funded and build by the muslim community but by Greeks?

2-Bulgarian Iron Church built,re-built and fund from the Bulgarians of Plodviv and "St. Stephen Church" Foundation.
No the restauration was largely funded by Turkish state, 17 Million Lira from Turkey and 1 million Lira from Bulgaria.

3- For the Antalya Evangelical Church and the....250 Turkish Christians and I didn't find any infos as regards who fund the built.
There are way more churches and monastries that have been preserved and repaired with funds from Turkish state.

So why do you expect that from Turks then?
Why is something thats ok in Greece not ok in Turkey?
You are the one who is accused that Greece does not build mosques, when you do the same.
Anyway, Greece has funded to built one mosque in Athens(Votanikos Mosque)

Me? Cant remember that but your claim has been proven wrong too.

On that note, Turkish state has refubrished and rebuilt over 86000 historical artifacts, many Greek artifacts amongst them, in the last 7 years only.

57 Churches got restauration works paid by Culture and Tourism Ministry between 2008 and 2018.

My friend you try to paint us black by posting abandones churches, we can post similar stuff from Greece too, there is a list (incomplete) of former mosques if you are really ignorant about the situation in your own country.

Not the slightest reference to "Greek".
Am I wrong?
Nope.......
Why?
In your source mention the Antalya Museum and the preservation of 13 statues(Perge kazılarında parçalar halinde toplu olarak bulunan 13 heykelin konservasyonu, Antalya laboratuvarı restoratörlerince titizlikle yapıldı. Bunlar bugün Antalya Müzesi'nin en gözde eserleri arasında yer alıyor.)

Here is the picture......

Not any single word as regards the.....Greek civilization in the several Turkish sites, including the Antalya Archaeological Museum!!!
You will find Lycia, Roman and Byzantine civilizations.....but not the Greek, even the Hellenistic periods!!!
They forget to mention that the King Attalus II of Pergamon is looked on as founder of the city in about 150 BC, during the Hellenistic period. It was named Ἀττάλεια in his honour.
Attalus was......Greek, actually the Kingdom of Pergamon or Attalid kingdom was a Greek state.

I am confused: 57(1st link) or 14(2nd link) Churches/synagogues ?

Anyway we speak for new structures and not for restauration works.

There are Greek artifacts amonst the thousands of preserved artifacts and structures, dont be so picky will you, its not like ministry of Culture and Tourism is leaving out anything just because its Greek.

The second link is an older news than the first one, its not disclosed but i guess the first is about 2008 to 2018 and second are those before that, or a simple journalistic mistake. Important thing is there is something being done contrary to your claims.
Again being picky here, Greece didnt even allow anyone else to pay for the mosque in Athens because of fear of outside influence, otherwise there have been muslim institutions who offered to pay for the building, its not about love of muslim community, its purely interest based.
Not to mention the construction permit needed almost 20 years because various groups resisted it from left to right.
In this context Turkish investment in the churches is a way bigger gesture than Greece financing a tiny mosque that can only handle 300 people...

Btw, interesting how you completely ignored the list about the abandoned mosques in Greece, how convenient for you.
