Information on the Turkish Cypriot
Solidarity Committee founded in 1989 with the support of EDON and
the treatment it receives from the Greek-Cypriot authorities is
currently unavailable to the DIRB.
However, it might be of interest to note
that EDON (Cyprus Socialist Youth) is a major Greek-Cypriot
national youth movement with its headquarters in the capital of
Nicosia (Angel 1990, 158). EDON was founded as the youth wing of
the Cypriot Socialist Party (EDEK) after the Cypriot constitution
was adopted in 1960 (Ibid.). According to the same source, EDON has
about 2,000 members and is a member of the International Union of
Socialist Youth.
Additional and/or corroborative information
on the requested subject is currently unavailable to the DIRB in
Ottawa.
