"The Deputy Minister's contacts in London will focus on the Cyprus problem ahead of the expanded meeting in New York next week and EU-UK relations in the framework of the assumption by Cyprus of the EU Council Presidency in the first six months of 2026," the Deputy Ministry said in a press release.
