Cyprus is a Safe Tourist Destination, Says President

The President of the Republic of Cyprus, Nikos Christodoulides, assured that Cyprus remains a safe tourist destination and a stable environment for investment and business activity, despite geopolitical challenges in the region. He stressed that Cyprus operates in conditions of institutional and economic stability and is a European pillar of stability. President Christodoulides referred to the resilience of Cypriot tourism, which has seen a 40% increase in arrivals and a 50% increase in revenue in the last three years, despite difficulties such as the loss of Russian tourists due to the war in Ukraine, which Cyprus managed to offset with visitors from other countries. He expressed optimism for this year's tourist season and announced contacts in Brussels to ensure the promotion of Cyprus as a safe destination.
