A possible solution to the Cyprus problem that can withstand the test of time, that is viable, does not come through our self-denial, but through the respect of our true History. The message that a sustainable solution to the Cyprus problem cannot be achieved through self-denial and the suppression of our History was sent by the President of the Republic, Nikos Christodoulides, during his speech at the inauguration of the Heroes Monument of the EOKA Liberation Struggle 1955-1959, in the community of Pyrgos Limassol. #Κυπριακό #Χριστοδουλίδης #ΕΟΚΑ (translated)

P.G. Papanikolaou sarcastically addressed Adonis Georgiadis, whom he called "the chancellor of history" and an ultra-patriot. He wrote that the most shocking speech delivered at the Pnyx in recent centuries was that of Theodoros Kolokotronis in 1838, when, as he stated, the revolutionaries decided to start the Revolution of 1821 without considering how many they were or if they had weapons. He then compared the critics of the time to local figures who, he claimed, supported submission to the sultan and described the Friendly Society as a terrorist organization, Kolokotronis as a Russian spy, Papaflessas as a heretical adventurer, and Georgios Karaiskakis with derogatory remarks about his origins. He referred to Karaiskakis as a figure of revolutions and said that he had issued a crudely worded threat to the "Pasha Rubius" and the corresponding politicians of various eras regarding his return. #Επανάσταση1821 #Ιστορία #Κολοκοτρώνης (translated)

StrategicWarCrafted wrote that, after the speech of American Secretary of State Marco Rubio at the Pnyx, the President of the Republic Konstantinos Tasoulas offered him the English edition of "Pericles' Funeral Oration" from the Parliament Foundation, with a handwritten dedication. The author noted that, according to Thucydides, the Funeral Oration was delivered in the winter of 431/430 BC, at the end of the first year of the Peloponnesian War, during the burial of the Athenians who were killed in battle. He added that the ceremony took place at the public cemetery of Kerameikos and not at the Pnyx. According to StrategicWarCrafted, the text linked the idea of the ideal city-state with democracy, freedom, courage, and public ethics. He also wrote that Rubio presented Athens as the birthplace of characteristics that shaped the West and called on the West to regain its confidence. Referring to Thucydides' "Histories," Book II, Chapter 43, the author attributed to Pericles the message that the dead should be a model and that happiness was linked with freedom and freedom with courage, while the dangers of war should not be avoided. He called on the country's political leadership to take this exhortation into account and wrote that it was not a time for bribes, but for the salvation of the Nation. He concluded with the phrase "Judges will judge us, the unborn, the dead." #Δημοκρατία #Ιστορία #Πολιτική (translated)
