"The presence of the dynamic Cypriot diaspora in the United States is a valuable asset for the Republic of Cyprus. Expatriate Cypriots excel in the fields of science, entrepreneurship, technology and public life, establishing their presence and appreciation in the societies they live and operate in. Despite geographical distances, their heart always beats in their special homeland – Cyprus," the Government Spokesman added.
