Yannis Andritsopoulos reports that, “The British government's willingness to "work" to resolve the "problem" of the Parthenon Sculptures was expressed, speaking exclusively to "NEA", by the new British Minister of State for Culture Ian Murray.

Asked whether he was optimistic that a mutually beneficial solution could be found regarding the future of the masterpieces of classical antiquity that Lord Elgin took away almost 220 years ago, the Minister of State for Culture in Keir Starmer's government clarified: "I am looking for solutions to all the problems that arise."

He then assured that "we will continue to work to resolve all the problems that we face, which are many. Of course, these include the Parthenon Sculptures."
