We, the Youth Organizations EDON, CTP Youth Branch, Proodeftiki S.M, BDH Youth Branch, PEOM, TKP Youth Branch, BKP Youth Branch, KSP Youth Branch, YBH Youth and the Bicommunal Organizations "Bicommunal Choir" and "Doctors for Cyprus" declare the following:

1-      We Re-affirm all our previous common declarations and our commitment for a solution of the Cyprus problem on the basis of a bi-communal, bi-zonal federation as provided in the two high level agreements of 1977 and 1979 and all relevant UN resolutions. Our Struggle in Cyprus for peace and reunification that has been going on for years has come to a new point with the referenda on 24th April.  The referenda were not the end of the road. The end of the road will only be the solution and the reunification of Cyprus. At this new point we will continue to struggle for a solution based on the Anan Plan,

2-      We share a common vision with regard to the future of our common homeland, which is a vision of peace, reconciliation, common struggle and prosperity for all. We therefore protest the anti-peace, nationalist and chauvinist propaganda and actions which emerged in both communities during the period which preceded and followed the referenda,

3-      We call upon the International community, particularly the UN and the EU to elaborate on ways and means to safeguard some legitimate concerns of the Greek Cypriot community in the U.N plan, without reopening the whole plan for negotiations. Such a development will greatly facilitate the pro-peace, progressive forces in the Greek Cypriot community to encourage the people in order to reach a solution in the period ahead,

4-      We, with the experience of the dark days due to the chauvinist policies going on for years, reiterate our determination to redouble our efforts for the reunification of our common island. A solution is now more than ever necessary to all concerned. We announce to the International Community that the pro-peace Cypriot forces shall never give up in their struggle and are now more than ever determined to bring their efforts for peace to a successful outcome,

5-      We, as progressive and pro-peace young forces of both communities, stress the necessity of achieving a solution, as soon as possible. We declare to people of Cyprus and to the international community our common will to continue and reinforce our struggle for a peaceful and prosperous island in the framework of a United Cyprus.
