What a joke you GCs turned out to be, just laughable.
2008 is the year partition will be achieved at last and "unification" (read=ENOSIS) just a mere thought of the past.
NEW YEAR’S WISHES
Tassos Papadopoulos: “The fact that a prompt and correct solution on Cyprus is prevented by the unacceptable Turkish stance and behavior does not mean we are forced to ‘close’ the Cyprus problem with an unsuitable arrangement, just for the sake of time. We do not strive to gain time at the cost of missing the substance. Our struggle is to ensure the survival of the Republic and the continued physical and ethnic existence of Cypriot Hellenism on the land of its fathers. Time may be cementing the fait accomplish of the invasion and occupation, but a bad solution would cement and legitimise the prospects for disaster.”
Demetris Christofias: “We renew our commitment to the struggle until a settlement which will reunite Cyprus within the framework of a bi-zonal, bi-communal federation, a settlement that will ensure human rights and basic freedoms. A settlement that will demilitarize a united federal Republic of Cyprus and will serve the interests of the Cypriots and not the foreigners.”
On the occasion of the 49th anniversary of the Cuban revolution, Christofias sent a letter of congratulations to Cuban president Fidel Castro:
“One again, AKEL denounces US attempts at isolating the people of Cuba, and we reiterate our solidarity with your nation, which is fighting to defend its independence and status.”
Ioannis Kasoulides: “Our hope is that in 2008 the conditions will be created that will lead to the vindication of our country. Our aspiration is that our country will take the upper hand on the Cyprus issue and that Turkey will come under pressure. May the new year see our people united, full of confidence and optimistic for the future, without any sense of fear or disappointment.”
(DREAMER )
Costas Themistocleous: “I would like to wish all Cypriots – Greek, Turkish, Maronite and Roman Catholic – personal and family happiness, which would be best ensured through the reunification of our country within the framework of a federation.”
