During the meeting, the Cypriot MPs congratulated Mr. Roussopoulos on his election as President of the CSE and expressed the readiness of the House of Representatives, through its delegation to the CSE, to support in every way the work of the Council of Europe and its Parliamentary Assembly. This year, the Cypriot MPs said, marks the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the Council of Europe as the guardian of democracy, the rule of law and human rights in Europe, but also the sad anniversary of the 50th anniversary of the Turkish invasion and continued occupation of part of the territory of Cyprus.
