The President of the Republic Mr.Nikos Christodoulides visited the Macedonitissa Tomb today, where he laid a wreath, accompanied by members of the Council of Ministers.
In his statements to journalists, the President of the Republic said that he went to the Mound of Makedonitissa "to honour all those who sacrificed for freedom, for independence, for the territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus.
A due tribute, from the first actions of our own government and this effort for independence, for freedom, for ensuring the territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus continues today.
At the same time, the current state of affairs can in no way be the solution to the Cyprus problem. One third of our homeland is under occupation and we will do everything possible precisely to break the deadlock and lead to the much-needed reunification of our homeland.
The message to all directions, both within our country and internationally, is that the future of Cyprus cannot be what we are living today."
The President of the Republic also signed the mound's visitors' book, in which he wrote: "A tribute is owed to those who sacrificed themselves to defend the freedom, independence and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus.
