Constantinople has always been Turkish.
Greeks do not want it anymore. The Greek Government has expressed recently that they do not see Constantinople as it's Holy Capital and Athens is the only Capital it needs. He said this in February of 2024.

That is very different from not wanting it anymore.
It is rightful territory of the Western Mongolia.

Turks are people who forgot they were Greek, and converted to Islam to avoid taxes.

That's fine, because it was originally called Lygos and it was founded by the Thracians when Ancient Greece was at the height of its power. it was never theirs to begin with.

You said they do not want to acknowledge it as the Holy Capital. It is still an important city within the country.

Exactly. Screw the Greek Constantinople claims.

Truth be said, the prime minister of greece, openly calls "constantinople" (its greek and historic name) openly Instabul, at his social media or at other peers, especially ones from abroad.

One of his ministers too, even bowed before Erdogan, while the latter was visitting on a diplomatic mission, there.

When the Turks made a claim to part of the Aegean sea beyond their internationally identified nautical space and called it "Turkaegean", for touristic purposes, the greeks barely replied to that and post quite some time passed, first.

Besides, modern greece holds few things "holy", or any respect for its history, legacy, tradition, even art. At best, they care for nothing and at worst, they intentionally sell things out, yield and cave in.
