Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in his weekly review on Facebook on Sunday referred to the Cyprus issue. ""Good morning to all. In these days and hours, Hellenism everywhere in the world remembers Cyprus wound that has remained open and painful for half a century. As I also told President Erdogan during our recent meeting in Washington, Cyprus, a member state of the EU, fifty years after the tragedy of '74, does not make sense to remain divided. It is our wish and hope that the two communities will take advantage of the new opportunity presented and sit at the table to find a solution within the framework of the UN resolutions, under the inviolable condition that any agreement will recognise one sovereignty, a citizenship, an international personality. In this effort, our Cypriot brothers have the support and support of Greece", the prime minister underlined.

Greece will continue to contribute "firmly and responsibly to the restoration of international legitimacy in Cyprus, which can only be achieved through the end of the occupation, the abolition of the anachronistic status of the guarantees and the reunification of Cyprus, on the basis of the UN Security Council Decisions," the Foreign Ministry stressed in a statement announcing the completion of 35 years of the unlawful and unilateral declaration of the "independence" of the pseudo-state.

Following today's meeting with Cypriot President Nicos Anastasiades, Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras promised to support the island's government, regarding reunification discussions by both territories.
