The hope that wiser thoughts will prevail on the part of Turkey in relation to its ongoing provocations in the Eastern Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea was expressed tonight by President Nicos Anastasiades.
In his statements to reporters, while attending the unveiling ceremony of the bust of Amerikos Argyriou, in Limassol, the President of the Republic, asked about the fire in Kormakitis, said that "we have indicated that we are ready to provide any assistance needed, because our homeland is one, Cyprus, and therefore regardless of the regime it is currently experiencing, i.e. the occupation, it is still a part that we are in pain and we definitely want to protect it".
Asked how concerned they are about the escalating Turkish provocations in the Aegean and the Mediterranean, the President said that "any provocation should certainly be of concern.
I want to hope that wise thoughts or wiser thoughts will prevail on the part of Turkey and that this observed revisionism will not continue and will not continue if finally some people who are now rightly reacting to something similar to what happened with Russia are finally sensitized."
