In his statements, the Defence Minister of the Republic of Cyprus said that joint work is being done to promote, within the EU, issues related to Mediterranean security whose importance is highlighted. He also mentioned that ways of further strengthening and deepening the cooperation were discussed, while he emphasized the readiness of the Republic of Cyprus to provide facilities in order to ensure a pronounced presence in the region.
