    Learning the Greek language is extremely important for the integration of migrants-asylum seekers and beneficiaries of international protection in the Cyprus Society, Interior Minister Neoklis Sylikiotis said on Tuesday, addressing a press conference held by the Cyprus Labor Institute (PEO-INEK) and the University of Cyprus.

    The conference was held in order to announce the conclusion of two actions co-funded by the European Fund for Refugees and the Cyprus government for the instruction of the Greek language to asylum seekers and beneficiaries of international protection.

    The programs were held between November 2010-June 2011 and the total cost is estimated to 185.00 euro, 75% of which was funded by the EU and 25% by the Cyprus Government.
