Speaker. July 20 marks the ninth anniversary of the Turkish invasion of Cyprus. Every year the tragic facts of this deplorable occupation of northern Cyprus by Turkish troops remain the same. 200.000 GreekCypriots continue to live as refugees in southern Cyprus and the whereabouts of 2.000 innocent civilians missing since the initial invasion in 1974 is still unresolved. As you know. this illegal act of aggression committed by the Turkish Army was undertaken with the use of American military hardware. Hence. the United States is beholden to the Cypriot people to seek a just and lasting solution to this human tragedy.
