The hagia sophia in istanbul was built 1,500 years ago as an orthodox cathedral. Cbss Holly Williams is there. Reporter for nearly ninety years hagia sophia has been a museum, built as a cathedral for christians, later becoming a turkeys founder, kemal ataturk, wanted it to be a monument for everyone. Now turkeys current leader, recep tayyip erdogan, has announced itll be converted back into a mosque, delighting his devout supporters, who celebrated outside hagia sophia, chanting god is great. But the decision horrifies those, like Nobel Prize Winning author orhan pamuk, who want their country to remain a place where politics and religion are kept separate. There are millions of secular turks like me who are crying against this but their voices are not being heard because we do not have enough free speech and democracy in turkey unfortunately anymore. Reporter hagia sophia built as a cathedral around when this city, now known as 1,500 years ago when this city, now known as istanbul, was ruled by the Christian Byzantine empire. Then, nearly 600 years ago, it became a mosque when the city was conquered by the Muslim Ottoman empire. In modern turkey, the religious and the secular rub shoulders, often surprisingly, sometimes uncomfortably. The decision to convert hagia sophia back into a mosque has been criticized by christian leaders, and us secretary of state mike pompeo warned against it.

Some businesses, if theyre open, might not accept currency in the first place or havee. The Federal Reserve told Americans Last month it would have to ration the distribution of coins, putting limits on how much change banks would be given. Those banks, in turn, are supplying fewer coins to the gas station and the corner store. Stores like that account for about 165 million transactions a day. Right now cash is a problem. Reporter according to a spokesman for National Association of convenience stores, jeff lenard theyre only being given a fraction of what they normally get in terms of coins. The irony of all of this is that if there is any kind of payment that retailers love, its cash. Reporter retailers sent this letter to treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin and Jerome Powell calling the shortage an emergency, asking the Federal Reserve to release coins.
