Rotary Club of Kyrenia Liman

Talk by US Ambassador John Koenig

By Margaret Sheard….

We were delighted to be invited by the Rotary Club of Kyrenia Liman rotaryto a dinner at The Colony Hotel in Girne where the guest of honour was the US Ambassador, John Koenig  who spoke to the guests and members of the clubs attending after a very enjoyable meal and gave a very interesting talk, followed by a question time from the guests, which were very thought provoking.   Ambassador Koenig and his family have had a long association with Cyprus and many happy memories of visits when the children were young and he will certainly be missed by many people when he returns to the USA.
