    Cyprus marks 45 years of independence

    Nicosia, Oct 1 (CNA) -- The Republic of Cyprus marks today 45 years since it gained its independence from British colonial rule, with a military parade and other events.

    President Tassos Papadopoulos took the salute, flanked by Defence Minister Kyriakos Mavronikolas and Greek National Defence Minister Spilios Spiliotopoulos, representing the Greek government.

    In brief statements after the 45-minute long parade, President Papadopoulos said his objective is to establish peace in Cyprus through a functional and just political settlement.

    ''As long as this solution is delayed because of Turkey's intransigence or Turkish refusal to negotiate in a substantive manner, it is our duty and priority to strengthen our defences,'' he added.

    In this, he continued, Greece is a firm supporter and associate.
