Russian policy vis-à-vis the Cyprus problem remains unchanged, the country’s new Ambassador to Nicosia Stanislav Osadchiy said on Tuesday, while noting that Russian financial actors are still interested in investing in the country, despite recent negative developments.

Osadchiy met today a delegation from the Cyprus Green Party, headed by the Secretary General Giorgos Perdikis. According to an announcement by the Greens, Osadchiy noted that Russia’s interest in a Cyprus solution, based on UN resolutions, is constant.

He said moreover that Russian interest to invest in the country continues, as long as restrictions in capital movement are lifted. He added that the Russian side is ready to broaden its cooperation with Cyprus, on the basis of a coherent and serious proposal.

Perdikis thanked the Ambassador and expressed his wish the Presidents of the two countries, Anastasiades and Putin, to meet soon, in order to enhance bilateral cooperation.
