Statement by Parliamentary Representative Mr. Nikos Tornaritis on the maritime interconnection between Cyprus and Greece
His great satisfaction that an initiative which he undertook together with Mrs Anita Demetriou, that of the maritime connection between Cyprus and Greece, is becoming a reality with the first route scheduled for 19 June was expressed by DISY MP Nikos Tornaritis.
"This is the result of yet another effort that focused on a long-standing demand of Cypriot citizens for alternative connectivity, and became a reality both thanks to the actions of the President of the Republic and thanks to the efforts made over the years by Mrs. Natasha Pileidou as Deputy Minister of Shipping, the current Deputy Minister Mr. Vassilis Demetriades, the Ministers of Transport Mr. Karousos, Finance Mr. Petrides and the competent bodies," he noted.
He added that the maritime passenger connection between Cyprus and Greece, by extension, means in practice a connection with the rest of Europe and we are sure, he said, that it will bring multiple benefits both for our fellow citizens and for the wider economic activity in our country.
