Commissioner Photiou praises role and contribution of Latin community in Cyprus

There is no doubt that the Latin community in Cyprus has left its sound mark on the island’s civilization, said Presidential Commissioner Photis Photiou.

 

Addressing a student exhibition on Thursday on the Latin civilization, Photiou said that this event is a reminder of the dynamic past of the community on the island, adding that its historic monuments are part of Cyprus’ culture.

 

He said that the 1974 Turkish invasion severely affected the community’s culture and monuments, adding that one of our goals is to restore these monuments and archeological sites.

 

Photiou hoped that the conditions will soon allow the resumption of the talks for a solution that will benefit Greek Cypriots, Turkish Cypriots, Latins, Maronites and Armenians on the island.
