The Commissioner of the Presidency, Mr Fotis Fotiou, paid a visit today, April 18, 2022, to the occupied village of Kormakitis, where he inspected the progress of the works being carried out on the land and building facilities of the Primary School under construction.
Mr. Fotiou accompanied by colleagues of his Office, the Maronite Representative in the House of Representatives, Mr. Giannakis Moussa and other representatives of Services, Associations and Organizations, paid an on-site visit and expressed his satisfaction with the progress of the implementation of the infrastructure works. It should be noted that the Government has approved funding of 450,000 euros for the construction of the stadium facilities. European funding of 1.2 million euros has been approved for the primary school under construction. It should be noted that the Kormakitis Primary School is expected to be operational in the school year 2023-2024.
Subsequently, the Commissioner of the Presidency attended a wide-ranging meeting with the stranded and resettled residents of Kormakitis where they discussed various issues of concern to them such as the revised agricultural and livestock subsidy plan, resettlement plans and especially the one concerning young people who want to resettle in Kormakitis.
The stay of our stranded people in their ancestral homes is a key objective of government policy and a national cause of the utmost importance, Fotiou stressed. That is why we are trying, through specific actions and activities, to create the appropriate conditions for the revitalization of all the occupied communities where our interned people live. At the same time, within our capabilities, we are solving the problems they face and trying to improve their quality of life.
Our goal, Mr. Photiou continued, is to ensure that our interned and resettled people have the conditions that will help them to secure a promising future for themselves and their children. Of course with the hope that the time will soon come when our country will be liberated from occupation and reunited to enter a new era of security and prosperity where human rights and basic freedoms are guaranteed and implemented.
