Cyprus - two...

There is always a possibility…

When I was walking in Ledra Street in Nicosia, I was feeling very sad. It was quite the same sadness I had when I was in some villages of Kosovo or visiting Auschwitz Camp. I was feeling very depressed, when I read the huge writing on the wall between two sides saying “Nothing is achieved without blood” on the wall in the Greek side. I still want to believe that humans can achieve peace and prosperity in their own countries without any bloody wars, fights or conflicts.

I just heard that the wall in the Greek part of Ledra Street is going to be destroyed… Happiness! Just a first step…

I was showing the banners in Turkish area stating “Let’s get rid of the last divided city in the world in peace” to my international friends, when I was in Ledra Street. Hopefully it will just be written in history books from now on.

Turkish side had demolished the barrier on the other side in December 2005. Now hopefully Greek side is also getting rid of the wall on the other side of the tampon area.

There is always a possibility for change… A change for peace…?
