A commemoration ceremony was held in London on the 59th anniversary of “Bloody Christmas.”
Turkish Cypriots gathered in front of the Embassy of the Greek Cypriot administration in London, lit candles and exhibited the photographs of those who lost their lives during the Greek Cypriot attacks.
The head of the Young Turkish Cypriots Group Eren Ramadan, in his speech at the ceremony, stated that he knew the family members of many people who were displaced, disappeared and killed due to the events that took place in Cyprus at that time and that this personally affected him.
“Turkish Cypriots have lost their representation on the international stage due to the coup carried out by the Greek Cypriots. 1963 is the beginning of the Cyprus problem and the isolation of the Turkish Cypriots” he said.
After the ceremony, prayers were recited for the martyrs and then Nejla Clements left a letter prepared on behalf of the Turkish Cypriots to the Greek Cypriot embassy.
In the letter, the Greek Cypriot Administration has been invited to tell the truth about the Cyprus issue to its own people and to the world.
