"We are in very good relationships with the present pope, Benedict XVI, and I'm in the very happy position to announce to you that we are going to restart the dialogue on the international global level between the Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church,"

The last official talks between the two churches five years ago broke off without an agreement on the theological issues that have divided them for almost 1,000 years. Bartholomew had received a warm reception from the Vatican after inviting the pope to Turkey for the Feast of St. Andrew in November.
