The public viewing of the body of former President of Cyprus, Giorgos Vasiliou, is underway at the Holy Temple of Hagia Sophia. His wife, Androulla Vasiliou, spoke emotionally about the deceased, emphasizing his work ethic and the love the public had for him. She expressed regret that he was not re-elected in 1993, believing that Cyprus would be a different country if he had completed a second term. Giorgos Vasiliou's greatest concern was the reunification of Cyprus. A book of condolences has been opened at the Presidential Palace, signed by the country's political leadership, former presidents, and many officials.
