The CDF Press Review aims to provide a concise overview in English of the main Cyprus problem-related developments, as covered by select newspapers in both communities.

The overall aim is to break through the language barrier and provide a service that helps build a better understanding of how the issues pertaining to the Cyprus problem, as well as other related issues, are portrayed in both communities, through the eyes of their respective media outlets.

 

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.
