The visit in Famagusta is organized by the Embassy of Slovakia in Cyprus along with political parties that actively participate in bi-communal activities. According to a relevant announcement, the initiative is dedicated to the promotion of cooperation and dialogue, as well as the building of confidence among the two Cypriot communities. At the same time, the visit aims to highlight the political parties’ interest to keep the cultural heritage across the island intangible.
