Greece is a valuable support and irreplaceable ally in Cyprus' struggles for freedom and vindication, AKEL MP and Press Spokesman George Koukoumas said after the student parade in Nicosia for the national anniversary of March 25th.
In particular, Mr Koukumas said that "the Greek revolution that we are commemorating today is a top milestone in the history of the Greek nation and in world history."
He added that "in the Greek revolution, the national liberation struggle of the Greeks met the wind of history that was tearing down the authoritarian empires at the time."
"The Greek Revolution unfolded a shocking, mass, popular heroism that managed to overcome all the trials and tribulations in the field of war and in international relations, and even civil conflicts, and managed to lead to the formation of the Greek state and open a different page in Greek history," he added.
For this reason, he continued, "it will remain a leading symbol of freedom and struggle, both national and universal."
Finally, Koukumas said that "we must also send a heartfelt greeting to the leadership and the brotherly people of Greece, who are the valuable support and irreplaceable ally in Cyprus' struggles for freedom and vindication."
