For #UNDay, we hosted an open day outside the Ledra Palace crossing, with top @UN official in #Cyprus, Khassim Diagne.
In his message for the day, Secretary-General @antonioguterres reminded us that now more than ever, we need "dialogue over division, cooperation over confrontation, and solidarity over fear."
Diagne reflected: "The Secretary-General's message resonates deeply here in Cyprus. Every day, we see people reaching across differences to build trust, strengthen communities and improve lives."
Thank you to all who joined the UN family on the island! #TogetherForCyprus 💙
