Cyprus constitutes today an international shipping power and an overall
modern, quality and comprehensive shipping complex, President of the
Republic of Cyprus has said.
Addressing Thursday evening the official dinner of the Cyprus Shipping
Chamber, in Nicosia, President Christofias said that in more than 20
years of existence, the Cyprus Shipping Chamber has been transformed
into a significant organisation with direct and active involvement in
the countrys shipping affairs.
The Cypriot President referred to the occupation of Cyprus by Turkey
since 1974, saying that with the Cypriot flag flying across the globe,
and Cyprus presence in international shipping organisations, the entity
of the Republic of Cyprus is reinforced.
Moreover, the extensive presence of foreign investments in Cyprus
creates conditions of enhanced security, while the foreign employees of
shipping companies in Cyprus become the best envoys of our national
problem abroad, he went on to add.
President Christofias said that the shipping industry in Cyprus has
managed, through timely and well-planned actions, to moderate the
adverse effects of the world economic crisis.
