Germany donates €160,000 to the CMP
Germany has donated €160,000 to the CMP (Committee on Missing Persons) in Cyprus.
The donation makes Germany’s financial contribution to the CMP to a total of €960,000 since 2006.
These funds will contribute to the committee’s goal of identifying and returning the remains of Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot missing from the intercommunal troubles of the 1960s and the 1974 Turkish invasion.
So far, 1,051 missing persons from both Cypriot communities have been identified and returned to their families for dignified burials.
