The President yet again refuses to denounce EOKA B role in the coup and destruction of Cyprus
Written declaration by AKEL C.C. Spokesperson Stefanos Stefanou
AKEL C.C. Press Office, 18th July 2017, Nicosia
Neither yesterday too did the President of the Republic, Mr. Anastasiades, make any reference to the role of EOKA B during the ceremony for the unveiling of the Monument dedicated to the Heroes of the Resistance to the coup d’état.
When the names of the victims who were murdered by EOKA B were read out at the ceremony in question, the President yet again made no mention at all to EOKA B’s subversive and terrorist activity, as well as to its catastrophic role in the destruction of Cyprus.
When unveiling the Monument, the President of the Republic should have rose above his petty-party beliefs, respecting the historical truth and, above all, the relatives of the heroes who were present at the event.
Unfortunately, Mr. Anastasiades downgraded himself from a President to a political party commissar.
