Specifications
The friendship and cooperation between Evangelos Averoff and George Seferis were tested at the end of 1958 and the beginning of 1959 due to their disagreements on the choices and path for resolving the Cyprus issue, resulting in the exclusion of George Seferis, ambassador in London, from the Zurich talks.
The two men exchanged a few letters while the dispute was intervened by Konstantinos and Joanna Tsatsos. This was followed by a long period of coldness, with their relationship never being restored.
During the time Evangelos Averoff was the Foreign Minister in the Karamanlis government, Seferis initially served as the director of the B' Political Directorate of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from 1956-1957 and as Greece's ambassador in London from 1957 to 1962.
He recorded his experiences and disagreements in his diaries and correspondence. He attributes wrong choices and carelessness to Evangelos Averoff while appreciating the positions and stance of Konstantinos Karamanlis.
This book dispels many myths surrounding the resolution of the Cyprus issue and overturns established versions and purposes, simultaneously demonstrating the seriousness, consistency, judgment, and foresight of Seferis, which was confirmed many times in the years that followed. He was not only a great poet but also a remarkable diplomat.
