The President of the EOKA Fighters' Associations calls for unity and an end to disruptive outbursts What he says in a written statement
The President of the Associations Fighters EOKA 1955 - 1959 Yiannis Spanos is sounding the alarm because division is lurking at our door and calls for unity.
In a written statement on the occasion of yesterday's events at a demonstration outside the Parliament, Mr. Spanos calls on those involved to stop acting with divisive outbursts and join in fraternal acts of friendship and cooperation, with the main purpose of supporting the liberation struggle that division undermines and opens the circle of guilt for the sufferings of the homeland.
It recalls that on December 5, in a statement under the title "The stench of civil war", which was issued on the occasion of the Parliament's resolution on EOKA leader Georgios Grivas-Digeni, it noted that the militant world refuses to join in the division because it knows its consequences and called on the people to unity.
Mr. Spanos recalls a second announcement on December 8, when we warned that we would not participate in an event of a group condemning the actions against Digenis, because it would be tantamount to provoking division.
We interpreted, he continues, the consequences of the division of the Greeks throughout the centuries, and despite the protest, there was a gathering outside the Parliament with implications known to society.
We insist that moves on the issue go against the national need for unity and unanimity, he said.
