As an ancient Greek proverb goes: “The greatest gift in life is friendship(Το μεγαλύτερο δώρο της ζωής είναι η φιλία, και το έχω λάβει).” In 2022, people from China and Cyprus will once again exchange this precious “gift” in the hope of leaving a brilliant mark on the excellent diplomatic relations between the two countries. On this important occasion of establishing strategic partnership between China and Cyprus, The Embassy of China in Cypurs, the Embassy of Cyprus in China, Phileleftheros (the largest Greek language newspaper in Cyprus), Cyprus Mail (the largest English language newspaper in Cyprus) and Home in Cyprus (the largest Chinese language media platform in Cyprus) have jointly launched the Collection of China-Cyprus Friendship Stories. This event is aimed at adding more footnotes to the 51 years of our friendship through the perspectives of people-to-people exchanges or special professional experiences. If you’re Cypriot, what’s your impression on China? Have you ever visited China? Are you a lover of Chinese culture? Or are there any interesting stories between you and your Chinese friends? If you’re Chinese, what’s your impression on Cyprus? What has left deep impression on you? Is it the natural scenery, romantic stories of Aphrodite, or kind Cypriot people? As witnesses and participators, we can also become recorders and inheritors of our friendship. Let us take actions to share our stories and best wishes in presenting this greatest gift in life, which will keep warming our hearts in the years to come. I.
