Gerapetritis: Issues Caused by Private Interests in Electricity Interconnection
September 9, 2025
Giorgos Gerapetritis, the Greek Foreign Minister, stated that high electricity prices in Cyprus may be influenced by private interests that want to maintain the status quo. He emphasized that the electricity interconnection project is vital for Cyprus and should continue. Gerapetritis declared that there would be no concessions regarding national sovereignty rights. Greece aims to support the project and will collaborate with the responsible company in 2025. The only difference with Turkey concerns the demarcation of maritime zones.
