Greens urge battle against GM foods
GREEN Party leader George Perdikis has written letters to all deputies calling on them to ensure Cyprus resists everything to do with genetically modified (GM) foods. The party had been fighting against GM foods for years, saying crops would destroy the natural environment in Cyprus and would essentially be the submission of a sovereign nation to multinational and corporate global interests. “The time has come for us to resist the import of genetically modified seeds, plants and animals to our island,” said Perdikis yesterday, adding that once the door was opened it could never again be closed.
