Raising the Flag of the Republic of Cyprus and of the EU - Cyprus Week 2010

CYPRUS WEEK - Raising the Flag of the Republic of Cyprus and of the EU



Tuesday 13th July 2010



This year's events take place against the backdrop of the 36th  anniversary since the Greek junta coup against the government of the Republic of Cyprus and the Turkish invasion and occupation of 34.7% of the Republic of Cyprus.

These events are also intended to celebrate the Accession of the Republic of Cyprus to the EU which will hopefully lead to the unification of the island as a truly independent federated state for all the people of Cyprus.



This year is also the 50th Anniversary of the Independence of Cyprus in 1960


PROGRAMME:
13 – 20 July 2010
