[PIO] Statements of the President of the Republic after the special session of the House of Representatives on the black anniversaries, yesterday

I am here to unite the Cypriot people so that we can walk together to achieve the goal of the reunification of our country, President of the Republic Nicos Christodoulides said yesterday.

In his statements to journalists after the special session of the House of Representatives on the black anniversaries, and asked to comment on a report by the General Secretary of AKEL on the Government's tribute to the storm troopers during the coup, the President of the Republic said: "I am here to honour all those who fought to defend democracy."

I am here to honour all those who through their struggles protected what is most important to us. I am not here to justify the unjustifiable, to justify all those involved in the treasonous coup.

At the same time, as the President of the Republic of Cyprus, I am here to unite the Cypriot people, to walk together, to achieve what I believe is the number one goal for all of us, the liberation, the end of the occupation and the reunification of our country. And to this goal we will all march together."
