“Sure. Right after they give back Constantinople.”

I’d settle for just the Hagia Sophia and other churches that were converted to mosques.

I agree. Nicolas was a Byzantine Greek and the Turks were settled in lands a thousand or more miles east during his lifetime. The Turkish government has no more ancestral claim to St. Nicholas’ remains than I do.
