Europe (Washington Insider Magazine) -This week marks the somber anniversary of the events of 1974, a turning point in the history of Cyprus that continues to cast a long shadow over the island. Half a century has passed, yet the division of Cyprus, an EU Member State, remains unresolved, with profound consequences for its people.
The division, forced upon the nation, is not a sustainable solution. However, hope persists for a unified Cyprus, where all its citizens can live in peace. To achieve this, a renewed commitment is essential from all parties involved, including the two Cypriot communities and Türkiye. The United Nations has long sought a peaceful resolution based on its Security Council resolutions, and now is the time for genuine action.
As the world faces broad geopolitical shifts and crises, it is crucial to come together to find a fair, comprehensive, and lasting solution to the Cyprus issue. Stability in the Eastern Mediterranean depends on it, as does the future of all Cypriots.
