"Controversial Tie Choice and Furious Row: The Elgin Marbles Debate"

Britain's King Charles raised eyebrows by wearing a tie featuring the colors and symbols of the Greek national flag to a climate conference, amidst a diplomatic row between the UK and Greece over the Parthenon Sculptures. The tie was worn during a meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and during a speech at the event. Charles, who has Greek lineage through his father, Prince Philip, wore the same tie last week before the dispute escalated. The UK media noted the tie's significance, as Sunak had canceled a meeting with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis earlier in the week. Athens has long called for the return of the sculptures, which were removed from the Parthenon temple by British diplomat Lord Elgin in 1806.
