Cyprus is part of the solution and not the problem, the country’s President Nikos Christodoulides said on Wednesday after Lebanon’s Hezbollah threatened the Mediterranean nation if it opened its airports and bases to Israel.
“I have read the remarks made. My answer is that the Republic of Cyprus is not involved in the war in any way,” Christodoulides said, responding to comments from Hezbollah chief Hasan Nasrallah, according to a statement on the presidency’s website.
In his speech on Wednesday, Nasrallah warned the nearby island-nation that the Iran-backed group would consider the Cypriot government part of the ongoing Gaza war if it assisted Israel.
