President Nikos Christodoulides will visit the White House on Wednesday, October 30, for high-level talks with U.S. President Joe Biden, according to diplomatic sources cited by Hellas Journal. The invitation, reportedly sent on Saturday, highlights deepening U.S.-Cyprus ties amidst regional tensions.
The visit is viewed as a diplomatic success for Cyprus and a signal to Turkey, which does not officially recognize the Cypriot government. Analysts suggest the meeting will focus on military cooperation in the Eastern Mediterranean and renewed support for Cyprus’s bid to restart reunification negotiations. Washington’s alignment with Cyprus reflects frustration with Turkey’s recent foreign policy shifts, including closer ties with Russia.
The visit underscores U.S. appreciation for Cyprus’s support in regional security efforts and signals a strategic shift as tensions persist in the region.
