The Turkish occupation stays a painful actuality, stated the Minister of Overseas Affairs, Konstantinos Kombos, in his greeting at an occasion of the Everlasting Mission of Cyprus to the United Nations, in New York, on the event of the sixtieth anniversary of the institution of UNFICYP on the island.
The Turkish occupation, he continued, stays an ongoing violation of worldwide regulation and a relentless reminder {that a} member state of the worldwide group faces, every day, the existential menace from the aggressor.
Mr. Kombos underlined that the Republic of Cyprus can verify the need of sustaining and supporting the peacekeeping pressure of the United Nations, specifically, in view of the consistently evolving challenges.
He recalled the assaults towards members of the Peacekeeping Drive final August, which the worldwide neighborhood condemned within the strongest phrases, and that the latest actions of the occupying forces are manifestations of right this moment's challenges.
