Found this thanks to Dr. P.

This is pretty cool. Can we legally proselytize in these countries?

5 branches? Wow this would be cool to do missionary work here.

Very interesting.

There may be some restrictions, including no proselyting to Muslims, but I would be interested to hear more.  In many of the Turkic republics which were formerly Soviet, there are a great many ethnic Russians, and it may be open season on non-Muslims for missionary work.  It may be that Turkey will allow proselyting only to ethnic minorities.  We'll see.
