The President of the Republic Mr.Nikos Christodoulides attended today the memorial service for those who died during the Turkish invasion, which was held at the Apostle Barnabas Church in the Archdiocese.
The Greek Government was represented by the Deputy Minister of National Defence, Mr. Nikolaos Hardalias.
After the memorial service, Mr: "we do not forget for a minute the painful consequences of this violent invasion. We do not forget that 49 years later, 37% of our island remains under Turkish occupation.
Athens and Nicosia are working in concert to reunify the island, to find a viable, just, workable solution based on UN Security Council resolutions, which should ensure the withdrawal of the occupying troops and, above all, should free the Cypriot people from anachronistic guarantees.
We are working feverishly and I think there will be progress in the next period."
