MORFOU ANTI-OCCUPATION MARCH
Agamemnon
The Turkish occupied Municipality of Morfou organised Sunday an
anti-occupation march in the presence of President of the Republic of
Cyprus Demetris Christofias, members of foreign parliaments and other
Cypriot and foreign officials.
Among the officials who participated were ten British MPs from all
British parliamentary parties, three British MEPs, the Greek Ambassador
in Nicosia, representatives from the Parliaments of Slovenia, France
and Malta, as well as Mayors from twin towns with Morfou.
Addressing the event, President of the House of Representative Marios
Garoyian has said that every year, from this very spot next to the
barbed wire which encircles our ancestral land, the motherland, the
people of Morfou declare their unwavering decision to continue their
struggle until the blessed day when they return to their homes.
Referring to the Cyprus issue and Turkey`s intransigent stance at the
Cyprus talks, he said that ``the period of tolerance has come to an
end``, adding that ``any further tolerance of this kind of behavior by
the Turkish side leads to our humiliation, as well as to the
humiliation of the European Union and the United Nations``.
