According to a statement issued by the Police, during the meeting, which took place at the Police Headquarters, the strengthening of the beneficial cooperation between the Cyprus Police and FRONTEX as well as how to further strengthen the support offered by this Agency in Cyprus, especially in terms of the return of third-country nationals to their countries of origin, were discussed.
