We commemorate the anniversary of April 1, 1955, the brightest moment in modern Cypriot history and pay tribute and gratitude to the heroes and fighters of the national liberation struggle of EOKA, who, following the example of our ancestors, gave their lives for the freedom of Cyprus and for the Union.
In its declaration it stresses that April 1, 1955 was recorded as the dramatic and epic culmination of a series of continuous national efforts to throw off the British yoke, but also of many years of spiritual preparation based on Greek education and the Orthodox faith of our people.
Today we draw the lessons by looking again at the virtues and characteristics of the EOKA generation. Characteristics that are directly linked to the timeless values of our history and the traditional virtues of philanthropy, philanthropy and philhellenism.
The wondrous epic of 1955-59 gives us the measure of unanimity, collectivity and resistance, while it also proved what can be gained through perseverance in the goal, hard work and faith in the success of the effort.

On this path we must also walk today, with the same unity and unanimity to conquer our national goal, which is none other than the liberation and reunification of our homeland.
