NICOSIA (Reuters) - Hundreds of activists turned streets of the Cypriot capital into a sea of rainbows on Sunday on a pride march in a push for equal rights irrespective of sexual orientation.

"Marriage for all" was the slogan of a parade through Cyprus's capital Nicosia, using the Cypriot vernacular "Gamos Gia Oullous" to emphasise how local mentalities morphed policies.
