Among the topics that will be discussed during the meeting are the Cyprus problem and Christodoulides’ proposal for a greater involvement for the EU in Cyprus affairs, specifically aimed at breaking the deadlock and resume negotiations to achieve a solution.

The two will also discuss the ongoing war in Ukraine and the flow of migrants in the Eastern Mediterranean area.

In the evening, the president will attend a dinner with members of the Cypriot community in Paris.

On Thursday, before departing for London, Christodoulides will also meet with representatives of French oil giant Total, currently involved in drilling activities in Cyprus’ Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ).
