19-12-16 Deputy Education Minister Zouraris in Cyprus for talks with Cypriot Education Minister Kadis

On an official visit to Cyprus, Deputy Education Minister Costas Zouraris held talks in Nicosia with Cypriot Education Minister, Costas Kadis.

After the meeting, Minister Zouraris made the following remarks –

First of all, of course, I should like to thank the Minister for his very warm reception. The Minister and his collaborators helped me to coordinate certain issues in Greece, and between the educational systems of Cyprus and Greece.

I was glad about the existing cooperation, because there is already a convergence, an operational convergence.

As for other matters, I am here, as many of you may know, because it is  ΅Cyprus, where it was decree that I should live΅ – a quote from George Seferis¨poem Eleni – by the Megalochari, Faneromeni Virgin Mary, so that I may always be a Cypriot, even as a Cretan, a Constantinopolitan, or a Thessaloniki native.

I would like once again to thank all my colleague educators and the Minister for the assistance they have offered to me.
