"Cyprus 1974" Wood Engraving, Refugee Fund, Republic of Cyprus, Κυπριακή Δημοκρατία

Description

There are 1619 missing persons, consequent to the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974. This number includes not only soldiers, but also a large number of civilians and among them women and children. These missing Greek Cypriots were arrested by the Turkish army and/or by Turkish Cypriots under the control and command of Turkey's armed forces. Subsequent to their arrest, a number of them despite all appeals to the Turkish Government and to other International Organizations, and contrary to International Law and Human Rights Conventions, Turkey refuses to provide any information about their fate. Dr. Martin Luther King in his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech, said: "I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant".
