Menelaos Kouzoupis

Two Cypriot WWII veterans reunite after 70 years

Two World War II veterans, a Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot who fought together in the war, met once again in Nicosia 70 years later.

Between 1946 and 1948, after the end of WWII, 92-year-old Menelaos Kouzoupis from Agios Fotios and 95-year-old Kemal Salih from Falia, returned to the island and lost track of each other.
