Neo-Cypriot Association Criticizes Archbishop's Christmas Message

The Neo-Cypriot Association strongly criticized the recent Christmas message from the Archbishop of Cyprus, describing it as divisive and distant from Christian principles. The Association argues that the Archbishop's rhetoric undermines social cohesion and the prospects for the reunification of Cyprus, as well as exceeding his spiritual role by intervening in political and geopolitical issues. Furthermore, the Association states that this rhetoric is reminiscent of times when religious leaders acted against the interests of the people. It emphasizes the importance of reunification, peaceful coexistence, and condemns any speech that undermines these goals.
