Greece categorically rejects the fait accompli of the Turkish invasion and occupation, the Greek Ministry of Foreign Affairs states in a press release marking the 43rd anniversary of the unilateral and illegal declaration of the pseudo-state.
The statement adds that it calls on all states to adhere to international law, to oppose any form of revisionism, and to fully respect the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus in the face of this secessionist entity.

He also notes that the declaration of the pseudo-state was condemned as illegal and null and void by United Nations Security Council Resolutions 541 (1983) and 550 (1984) of the United Nations Security Council.
“Greece categorically rejects the fait accompli of the Turkish invasion and occupation and calls on all states to comply with international law, to oppose any form of revisionism, and to fully respect the sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity of the Republic of Cyprus in the face of this secessionist entity,” it states.
In full coordination with the Republic of Cyprus, it adds, Greece remains unwaveringly committed to finding a comprehensive, mutually acceptable solution based on a bi-zonal, Bi-communal Federation, with political equality, a single international personality, a single sovereignty, and a single citizenship, in accordance with the UN Security Council Resolutions and the European acquis.
Greece, it is noted, “welcomes the efforts of the UN Secretary-General and his Personal Envoy to resume substantive talks aimed at achieving a just, sustainable, and workable solution to the Cyprus problem.”
