Cyprus plans gradual integration into NATO
Cyprus is moving forward with plans to join NATO, with a gradual rapprochement strategy discussed during a meeting between President Christodoulides and US President Biden in late October, Azernews reports via Kathimerini.
Nicosia has developed a step-by-step plan for NATO membership, which has already received approval from Washington. The country’s strengthening role in the region has also been a topic of discussion with US senators who have close ties to former President Trump.
Previously a member of the Non-Aligned Movement, Cyprus left the organisation in 2004 upon joining the European Union. The country had not considered NATO membership until now.
