Revisiting Cyprus after 50 years
Manage episode 429656217 series 2890492
Iain Craigie and daughter Jane revisit Cyprus after over 50 years.
The island is now divided between the Greek and Turkish ruled areas, after separation in 1974. The island remains strategically hugely important, given its location in the middle of the Mediterranean sea and the unrest in the middle east.
Iain and Jane, also visited Famagusta, where the Craigies lived in the late 1960s. As part of one of these visits they went to Varosha, the ghost town where Greek families fled in 1974. A haunting place.
Please note, this was recorded when President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan was still in power.
