The cooperation we have developed with the Greek Government is, of course, crucial. It aims at better coordination and partnership between Cypriot and Greek Diasporas, with the potential, the influence and the assets of Hellenism as a whole acting as a springboard for further joint actions. Such actions aim, among other things, at preserving our common national identity, customs, traditions, religion, as well as at promoting Greek Language and Culture Studies in the countries of residence and activity of the Cyprus Diaspora. The repatriates, as well as the provision of all necessary information for their smooth reintegration in our homeland, constitute an integral part of our Strategy on Diaspora. We are grateful for the contribution of our Diaspora and in particular of its organisations, with which we seek even closer cooperation, as their role remains foremost and particularly important to our efforts. This they have proven repeatedly over the last few decades. We take pride in the fact that our Diaspora’s organisations have sustained the light of Hellenism shining over the consciousness of national identity in foreign lands, keeping the eyes of every Greek soul open and vigilant.
