Letymbiotis: Trump's Invitation to Gaza Peace Council Does Not Imply Financial Obligations for Cyprus

Government Spokesperson Konstantinos Letymbiotis stated that President Trump's invitation to President Christodoulides to participate in the Gaza Peace Council does not imply any financial obligations for Cyprus. The Cypriot Republic is seriously evaluating the invitation and will make an official statement after the process is completed. Mr. Letymbiotis emphasized that claims of financial obligations are untrue, as the invitation concerns participation for three years with the possibility of renewal, and not payment of funds. Furthermore, he highlighted the recognition of Cyprus's role in the Middle East region by the United States.
