John Coster (Documentary Media Centre) interviewed me last week for series 2 of #10DaysofConflictMemory.

We discussed my experiences walking the Green Line in Nicosia, Europe’s last divided capital city. Last year, I wrote a piece on this topic. It contained some reflections on walking across the buffer zone, between the Greek Cypriot south and Turkish north of the city.

We discussed the origins of the Green Line before the 1974 invasion. We also compared it to other divided cities like Belfast and Berlin. Additionally, we talked about the dark tourism linked to abandoned settlements.

Thanks to John as always for the invitation. Please do check out the other videos in the series here.
