Half a century after Turkey invaded the island and occupied 37% of the territory of Cyprus, the Cypriot Members of the EPP Group remember the decades of struggle faced by the hundreds of thousands forced to flee their homes and the families of those killed or still missing. They hope that a new United Nations Special Envoy will succeed in finding common ground to restart negotiations with a view to reuniting the island.
The EPP Group calls for an end to Turkey’s occupation and its insistence on a two-state solution. A reunified island would make Cyprus a beacon of hope and stability in the Mediterranean.
