The President of the Republic of Cyprus, Mr Nikos Christodoulides, received today, at the Presidential Palace, the Minister of State of the United Kingdom for Europe and North America, Mr Stephen Doughty.

In his remarks to the media following the meeting, Mr Doughty said: «It's not my first time in Cyprus. I'm hugely proud of the deep and historical relations between the United Kingdom and Cyprus. There is a strong Cypriot community in my own hometown in Cardiff.

It’s a pleasure to be back here. I had very constructive meetings today, particularly discussing issues relating to our bilateral relationship, the geopolitical circumstances and also, crucially, ahead of the settlement talks in Geneva in about ten days’ time, I have had an excellent meeting with President Christodoulides and a meeting with Mr Tatar.

We've had constructive discussions today and I look forward to deepening our relationship even further».
