FM to attend EU General Affairs Council

FOREIGN Minister Erato Kozakou-Marcoulli will attend the EU General Affairs Council in Brussels tomorrow.

Within the framework of the Council, she will hold meetings with foreign ministers and European Affairs ministers from other member states, as well as EU officials. 

She is expected to raise the issue of Turkish threats on Cyprus as a result of the Republic’s intention to exploit natural resources in its Exclusive Economic Zone. Marcoulli will also attend a meeting of the Presidency trio with the European Parliament for the long-term fiscal framework.

 

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
