It is with great pleasure that I am attending tonight's concert, jointly organized by the Cyprus Centre for Studies and the music composer George Hadjimarkou, under the title: "
The golden historical city with its emblematic landmarks, great spiritual development, bliss and cosmopolitan character, remains for more than four decades mute, deserted, a prey in the hands of the ruthless conqueror, waiting for its own people.
Every form of artistic creation, such as the one presented tonight, is a living testimony that unites its voice with the timeless and unceasing struggle of the Greeks of Cyprus for the reunification of our divided homeland and, above all, for the restoration of a sad injustice suffered by the island since the bitter summer of 1974.
The Turkish invasion brought tragic consequences to our land, which are still painful and visible, violating basic human rights, UN resolutions and decisions as well as every principle of international law.
