President of the Republic of Cyprus, Nikos Christodoulides, will depart for the United Arab Emirates on Wednesday. His visit includes a meeting with the President of the UAE, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
During the high-level talks, the two leaders are expected to discuss recent developments concerning the Cyprus issue, the situation in the Eastern Mediterranean, and the prospects for bilateral cooperation in the fields of energy, economics, and investments.
President Christodoulides will be accompanied by Foreign Minister Konstantinos Kombos, Deputy Minister for European Affairs Marilena Raouna, and the Director of his Diplomatic Office, Doros Venezis.
The Cypriot delegation is scheduled to return on Thursday.
