Put Them in the Sea to Rest!

The author revisits the events of 1974 and the situation Cyprus found itself in after the Turkish invasion, emphasizing the enormous losses in human lives, land, and economic resources. Despite the difficulties, Cyprus managed to rebuild and join the European Union, demonstrating remarkable progress. However, the basic problem of division and occupation remains unresolved, with 37% of the territory under Turkish control. The author highlights the huge population increase in the free part of Cyprus and the need for continuous effort to modernize and adapt to European standards. He concludes with a call for a solution to the Cyprus problem, so that the occupied territory can be liberated and full national restoration can be achieved.
