Granting of Cypriot Citizenship to Children of Fallen Greek Nationals
October 29, 2025
Cypriot citizenship will be granted to the children of Greek nationals who died in 1974 during the Turkish invasion. This decision comes after years of neglect as these individuals were overlooked by the state. The naturalization will occur not for financial motives, but to honor their parents who sacrificed their lives. This regulation has been submitted to the Parliament and is expected to be approved. Among the beneficiaries will also be individuals from the arts and culture sector.
