Cyprus a divided island Almost 36% of the territory of the Republic of Cyprus - i.e. the northern part of the island, where 70% of its natural resources are concentrated - is under Turkish occupation. 28% of the Greek Cypriots have been displaced from the occupied northern sector where they had constituted 80% of the inhabitants. Greek and Turkish Cypriots, who for 300 years had lived together intermingled throughout the island, were now artificially separated. The ascertainment of the fate of the missing persons is still pending. Help us unite the country. Turkish Army out of Cyprus! Ο αγώνας του κυπριακού λαού είναι η εκδίωξη του Tούρκου κατακτητή και η ενοποίηση Eλλήνων Kυπρίων και Tούρκων Kυπρίων σε μια Κύπρο ενωμένη μέσα στην Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση ------ "My inalienable right to return as the legitimate citizen is the reason for my struggle. To return either as a worshipper or a tourist to my home, I think that it is something temporary that does not contribute to our final goal." Morphou Mayor Antigoni Papadopoulou ================================================================================================ I will sing of stately Aphrodite, gold-crowned and beautiful, whose dominion is the walled cities of all sea-set Cyprus. There the moist breath of the western wind wafted her over the waves of the loud-moaning sea in soft foam, and there the gold-filleted Hours welcomed her joyously. They clothed her with heavenly garments: on her head they put a fine, well-wrought crown of gold, and in her pierced ears they hung ornaments of orichalc and precious gold, and adorned her with golden necklaces over her soft neck and snow-white breasts, jewels which the gold- filleted Hours wear themselves whenever they go to their father's house to join the lovely dances of the gods. And when they had fully decked her, they brought her to the gods, who welcomed her when they saw her, giving her their hands. Each one of them prayed that he might lead her home to be his wedded wife, so greatly were they amazed at the beauty of violet-crowned Cytherea. ~Homeric Hymn to Aphrodite, translated by N. S.
