Post coup Turkish refugees have been fleeing into Greece since 2016

Turkey is home to 3.4 million refugees -- 3.2 million from Syria. Less well-known, are those fleeing Turkey. 

Since a failed coup attempt against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in 2016, around 90,000 followers of the late Muslim cleric and philosopher Fetullah Gulen have left the country. 

Their first stop was neighbouring Greece. 

While most moved onto Germany and Scandinavia, several thousand remain, mainly in Athens. 

We caught up with Sotirios Livas, who was in Australia as a guest of the Affinity Foundation, which is associated with the Gulen movement.
