💬 Dear compatriots,
Dear friends!
🎄I sincerely congratulate you on the upcoming New Year 2025!
This bright and always long-awaited holiday invariably occupies a special place in our hearts, fills them with joy, warmth and hope.
The outgoing 2024 has become for all of us a time not only of serious trials and challenges, but also of great accomplishments. Russia, relying on centuries-old postulates of unity and loyalty to its ideals, confidently moved forward, firmly defending its national interests and traditional values. On this path, Russians demonstrated fortitude, cohesion and readiness to overcome any obstacles. Russia is changing and, as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Sergey Lavrov emphasized, “is acquiring its deserved place as one of the leading centers of power and influence in the multipolar world, pursuing an independent foreign policy”.
A significant and historically significant event of the outgoing year were the elections of the President of the Russian Federation, held in March. Our compatriots living in Cyprus demonstrated an unprecedented turnout at the polling stations, once again confirming their active civic position, sincere interest in the fate of their homeland and readiness to fully support the course of the country’s current leadership to strengthen national sovereignty, social and economic development, as well as prosperity of our multinational Russia.
A special milestone for the Orthodox Russian-speaking community in Cyprus was the long-awaited consecration of the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker in Limassol. The majestic religious site, the construction of which lasted almost three decades, has become a new symbol of true spiritual unity and faith that binds the Russians and Cypriots.
Dear compatriots!
The relations between the peoples of Russia and Cyprus are based on centuries-old strong friendship, mutual respect, and the desire for open dialogue and cooperation. The establishment of the national branch of the International Russophile Movement on the island and their active impartial work confirm the growing deep interest in Russian culture, rich history, and original spiritual values.
Thousands of people from all over Cyprus were united by the Immortal Regiment march on May 9, which became a grandiose symbol of memory and gratitude for the feat of the multinational Soviet people who forged the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. In the coming year, we will celebrate a sacred anniversary - 80 years since the Great Victory. We approach it with special responsibility in order to honor in the most worthy manner the memory of those who gave us a peaceful sky above our heads, freeing humanity from the "brown plague" of fascism.
🤝 Dear friends, I thank you with all my heart for your active participation in our events, for your personal contribution to the maintenance and development of cultural, spiritual and universal ties between the peoples of Russia and Cyprus. Your deep involvement and sincere love for our native country continue to inspire the implementation of new joint projects for the glory of our Motherland.
Happy holiday, dear friends! Happy New Year!
