At a meeting with the Bulgarian delegation in Ankara, the Turkish side expressed concern over the change of place names which are in the Turkish language in the region of Stara Zagora with place names in Bulgarian, over the problem of mufti property, and the restoration of Ottoman sites in Bulgaria.
