Makarios writes to the Greek president Phaedon …
Years: 1974 - 1974
July
Makarios writes to the Greek president Phaedon Gizikis early in July, demanding that the remaining six hundred and fifty Greek officers assigned to the National Guard be withdrawn.
He also accuses the junta of plotting against his life and against the government of Cyprus.
Makarios sends his letter (which is released to the public) to the Greek president on July 2, 1974; the reply comes thirteen days later, not in the form of a letter but in an order from Athens to the Cypriot
National Guard to overthrow its commander in chief and take control of the island.
