January 25, 2026
The invitation to President Christodoulides from the Oval Office poses diplomatic challenges for Cyprus in balancing its relations with the United States and Europe. The President's decision not to attend Davos reflects the need to carefully consider the implications of his response. Cyprus is in a critical position as it will hold the EU Council presidency and needs to maintain its diplomatic balance. Contact with European and American counterparts is necessary to understand the impacts of a potential negative response to the invitation. The situation is complex, particularly as Turkey's involvement is significant in determining Cyprus's actions.
