The
Republic of Cyprus celebrates its independence day on October 1st.
Cyprus' independence came into being in 1960,
after a long anti-colonial struggle against the British rule. However,
the Republic of Cypru s
had only enjoyed its independence until July 1974, when Turkey
invaded the island to occupy 38% of the land and chase away some 163,000
Greek Cypriot refugees. Twenty three years on, Turkey maintains the illegal
occupation in defiance
of United
Nations Resolutions of unequivoal substance. And the Cyprus
Problem has become a major dispute in t he sensitive Middle East.
