As Deputy Mayor of Famagusta Chrysanthos Zannettou, "together with members of the Committee of the Cultural Centre of Famagusta Municipality, we welcomed the candidates yesterday, Monday 14 March, at the Cultural Centre in Dherynia. There was an extensive briefing on the history of the occupied city, on the course of the Cyprus problem and on the Turkish invasion of 1974."
Specifically, he said, "there was a briefing on the issue of the priority of Famagusta and on the United Nations Resolutions concerning the occupied city. We also referred to the latest developments concerning Famagusta, namely the fact that the status quo in the occupied city has changed in the last two years with the opening of the enclosed area and the creation, on the part of Turkey, of new facts which complicate the whole effort to resolve the Cyprus problem."
Mr. Zannettou also said that "he mentioned to the prospective followers that the struggle will continue until the final solution of the Cyprus problem, the return of the legal residents of Famagusta to their ancestral homes and the rebuilding of the city."
He also noted that "the prospective followers showed particular interest in what was mentioned to them and had the opportunity to ask questions about the essence of the Cyprus problem and the political aspect of the occupied city. At the same time, several questions that the visitors had regarding the political issues concerning Famagusta were resolved."
He also mentioned that "the prospective followers had the opportunity to go up to the roof of the Cultural Center of the occupied municipality, to see the city from afar, in person and to ask a lot of questions about political and not only issues concerning Famagusta."
