Former EU officials – Cyprus included – call for peace in Middle East

A statement calling for peace in the Middle East was signed on Monday by over 400 former EU and member state ministers, ambassadors and senior officials, including Cyprus’ former Foreign Minister Erato Kozakou-Marcoullis.

“At a time when the international order is facing unprecedented challenges, the EU and its member states must fully engage with all relevant parties to bring peace to Israel-Palestine in accordance with longstanding UN principles, resolutions and international law,” they said.
